  • multiple worlds
  • morally gray characters
  • sinister magic
  • well written villains

Lila is quite possibly in the category of my favorite characters ever. I love everything about her: her undying need for adventure, her quippy sense of humor, trying to pretend like she has a heart of stone but clearly doesn't... Here for it all + more! Overall this book didn't blow me out of the water in the way I was hoping, but I'm definitely intrigued and will be continuing the series.

I also listened to the audiobook while reading and this narrator did a lot of voices, but their initial typical narration (sounded like what I call 'fancy british') took some getting used to. I see that there are different narrators for the sequels so wondering how that will go...

 On m’a dit que c’était pas le meilleur de la série. Et bah j’ai hâte parce que j’ai déjà kiffé celui-ci. 
But ça mérite d’être un peu plus gay
