I got so invested in this story so fast! Ivy is a funny and sympathetic narrator, and the mystery was juuuuust the right level of difficulty. I couldn't figure it all out on my own, but I might have if I had taken notes. But it's not just a mystery, it also gave me feelings??
Yeah, it takes place at a boarding school for magical teens, but it's definitely not Harry Potter.
I would have rated it higher, except I feel like it has low reread-value - but the first read was SO fun!!
