Im so glad I listened to the audiobook through my library i would have been upset if I'd purchased this. 

Theres no reason this should have been as long as it was. It needed serious edits and cuts. 

The Dual pov was what kept me going. This was dark academia and moon tied magic and complicated character connections so in theory this should have been amazing. It just was so slow I failed to get invested. I don't think I'll pick up book 2.
