This book was so lovely and I read it all in two cold, rainy winter days. I LOVED the concept of magical fighting booksellers and only wished that we could have learned more about them and spent more time in their world. I loved the blending of folklore and the fast-paced mystery and the three main characters. While I do feel the book had its writing issues and would have loved more exploration of the magic system, it was overall a fun, adventurous read with an interesting premise.
