It's pretty good, not great. I enjoyed it and am disappointed my library doesn't have Part 2. I'm growing to like the characters quite a bit - they're lovable even if fairly simple. The romantic interest is believable and not shallow. I'm not really cringing at all like I did in some of the later ACOTAR books.
It doesn't really get into the magic system, which I would have preferred, but there are some interesting features (a fire sprite, the Drop, etc.).
This GraphicAudio is well done - good character voices, good sound effects, music mostly when it makes sense (not just randomly for atmosphere, which I find annoying).
