The world-building is amazing. The school, the magic...but I felt like there was no plot. I mean, the characters did things but it felt like it wasn't supposed to reach anywhere. I definitely enjoyed reading the book, it was entertaining and bc of that reason I gave it the 2 stars, but there was absolutely no plot and the two main characters who were supposed to have feelings for each other had zero chemistry.
