It took a second for me to get warmed up to the story. I think I felt a similar sentiment for Seven Days in June, but in this instance, I think I was more than halfway into the story. It was when Ezra relieved his secret that things started to pick up for me. I normally am not a fan of instalove. Ezra and Ricki's relationship was Instaloveish so that could be why I wasn't completely invested in their romance. But I loved all the characters in the story and how their stories all wove together. One of my favorite things about Tia Williams writing is how she incorporates black art and culture spanning the century with the appropriate humor.  The dialogue between characters is always engaging and real, it's another thing I enjoy about her writing.  Overall I had a good time with this Magial Romance.
