I loved this story. In some of it, it felt a bit like she’d used a thesaurus one too many times but overall I loved it.

This was totally fun! I don't usually like fantasy novels, but this was a winner for me. I described this on my blog as a drugged up Harry Potter and I still stand behind that. Ghosts, magic, secret societies, enchanted libraries, hidden hide-outs, dorm rooms, and dreamy school campuses - this book has all of it! The only reason why I'm not giving this five stars is because it was a tiny bit repetitive.

No numeric review for this book, as it shares similarities with my own manuscript. 
Let’s just say I looked at this as objectively as I could—learning a hell of a lot about what works and what doesn’t.
