Ruthless Magic by Megan Crewe

4.0

Solid 3.5 star just shy of a 4 star
This is a slow burn book, but tit is well worth the wait to get to where it starts to really crack on with everything. This has some interesting world building, I like how we get a history of magic so we get why things are the way they are and how the magic is not just straight forward magic it comes in different ways so no need for a wand for some people! I liked Finn and Rocio they are opposites but they work, this is definitely a mix of quiet a few well known YA books/movies and it does work well. Once they get into the games everything starts to get amped up in the book as the games are a serious matter and you do not want to lose! I think this has great potential and book 2 could be a fantastic read after all the learnings from this book.
