A review by thechiaraface
Magic for Liars by Sarah Gailey

Did not finish book. Stopped at 10%.

At 10% we have not even gotten to the magic school yet? And the internal monologue of this main character is just kind of unbearable to me. She is just so mopey and self-pitying and she talks to herself and/or the reader a lot and I don't think I'm going to get through without being really annoyed with her. She feels very much like a classic noir detective who is dark, not clearly a good person, and has a decent amount of self -loathign but I don't really want to be immersed in that kind of person's head. Glad this exists, glad to see the male noir tope turned about a bit,  but not for me I think.
