A review by alilbitofmonica
Magic Study by Maria V. Snyder
4.5
I don't know how many times I have read this book/series at this point, but it still fills me with all the joy of the first read through. Despite knowing everything that would happen, I still found myself not wanting to put the book down multiple times.
I love the characters, I love the setting, I love the fast moving plot and the intricacies of the world building.
I squealed, I laughed, I shouted. I annotated all my unhinged thoughts. I honestly had the best time with this (as I always d0).
I will say that this read through did have this feeling much more of a ya vibe than I remembered, as this was clearly written with a younger adult audience in mind. However, I still love it all the same. The difficult/dark topics addressed are done with respect and gentleness, making this a wonderful fantasy reading experience.
Content warnings: sexual and physical abuse - of children and adults, torture, mild mentions of blood/gore, depictions of grief
