I loved this book! This book made me thoroughly laugh from beginning to end. Laszlo was hysterical and his banter with Maggie and Lump (best name ever, btw) was a joy. Demons be sassy! The humour blended perfectly with a lot of heart and a fascinating story. We have demons and magical beings and curses and adventures and a touch of horror that caught me off guard. (but spoilers!)

I adored the characters and I loved how their relationships grew along the way – without any romance. YAY FRIENDSHIPS. (As someone that has read a lot of romance heavy books over the last year, this was super refreshing.) The writing kept me invested, and kept me guessing at what Laszlo’s true intentions were – heck, the intentions of all of the different demons, because can you ever really trust a demon?

Good pacing, great writing, nice touches of feels, and lots of laughs. Highly recommend this one, and I would sign up with a sequel sogoddamnfast.
