UPDATE: Re-reading since book 6 comes out next week. I still stand by my original review; this book was hella entertaining to me! I’m not sure I caught that it takes place in just one week the first time I read it though! Things sure escalated quickly! But it didn’t keep me from becoming super invested in Jaxon and Grace again, even though I know what’s coming…
ORIGINAL REVIEW: Oh man, this was campy and trope-y and great distraction! I’ve seen this book/series mentioned EVERYWHERE, but just never got around to it. I get some of the complaints that are lobbed around some of the less flattering reviews, but that didn’t make this any less entertaining for me. Sure, the world building and magic system could have been more fleshed out, but, in the book’s defense, it’s all from Grace’s POV and since *she* doesn’t know how things work, *we* don’t know how things work. I’m hoping that is rectified in the next book. But honestly, even if it’s not, I don’t think it’ll bother me too much—there’s enough drama to keep me coming back! My favorite thing though, hands down, had to be when Jaxon sent Grace a copy of Twilight because COME ON! THAT is freaking HILARIOUS! IYKYK 🤣
