I don't like open ended endings!!
The rest of the story was cute enough. I loathed the so called "parental figures" in both Jack and Wil's life. Especially after Jack's betrayal. How could they leave him without saying anything??

Excellent characters, interesting plot, and the correct amount of fantasy in an historical set.

Perhaps it is important to check the trigger warnings before reading this book, although know that there's no homophobia included, which I agree with the author, was the correct choice for this story.

Really tried my best to sit through and still had to put this down. I don't know why this was such a hard read for me but I just couldn't seem to care about anything going on, even when one of the characters has the whole "actual magic and has been kidnapped" thing going on

Stopped reading at 68% (took me 23 hours at 70% speed) 

I enjoyed the budding romance between magician assistants but couldn't stand the child abuse anymore.

Interesting side character, the "sister" of one of the narrators, is a disabled girl using a cane to walk and is an engineer. 
Best friend of the narrator is a black lesbian woman.
