4.5
adventurous emotional funny hopeful inspiring medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

 It's a YA fantasy novel that I found through tiktok. Some of the reviews for this book refer to it as a Nigerian Harry Potter and that doesn't feel right to me. As a huge Harry Potter fan, this book is better. The characters have more dimension and the story has good pacing. It's part of a series and I look forward to reading the rest. Overall, I'm going with a solid 7/10, would definitely recommend.
