A Legacy Witch by Ashley McLeo
3.0
Very mid, but entertaining at times.
The main character is just so incredibly boring. She puts no effort into anything, despite claiming she wants to succeed. Yes, there is a binding that prevents her, but she knows nothing. I don’t blame Diana for taunting her as legacy. She point blank hasn’t shown that she belongs in the school. (Also how is it possible that Alex figured the binding thing and not one of her teachers?)
Her friendship with Eva might be bland, but man oh man her relationship with Alex is even blander. They go from hating each other to soft tender love so fast. And it’s not even the hot version of enemies to lovers. He legit never talks to her, and then bam. He is in loooove. Their relationship makes me cringe, and I skimmed through every spice scene because I don’t care and they don’t make a believable couple.
All the secrets don’t seem like secrets, nothing is ever at stake, and everything gets resolved within a few chapters. The parents are weird characters, I have no idea how the magic system works, and it’s just.. not well thought out.
I guess I could have given it less stars, but some parts were fun and I liked the ambiance.
