I feel like I don't know what happened in this book. I tried to re-read Act 1, and I just still felt lost. I was really confused by the magic. But that could be me, I feel like I always struggle with magical realism? Once things started happening, I felt like I did know what was going on. I just am not too sure how much I cared. The romance, if you could call it that, fell really flat on me. The plotline about her sister felt the same way. It was written in a nice way, the idea was intriguing, I just wanted more. I honestly only gave it so high because I feel like I just missed something and I need someone to explain it to me?
