This is a really fun science fiction/fantasy romp. I love the blending of science into the unknown of magic. My only gripe is how obnoxious Sean is at the beginning of the book. I am not a fan of hypermasculine threatening as a precursor to a possible romance subplot.

This novel doesn't quite cross into police brutality, but there is a law enforcement officer who harasses the main character because he can sense something off about her and her house (the magic)

Fantastic fantasy. Has high fantasy elements while still being set primarily on modern day earth. Fascinating setting that was both comforting and adventurous. I haven’t had a book leave me feeling so simultaneously joyful and eager to continue in months.
