I wanted this to be a 5 star read SO BAD. I liked the characters, the story was interesting enough, but honestly the magic system was so confusing. I still don't understand a lot of the plot points because it was just poorly explained, and it didn't help that I found it hard to read the writing style. I had to read some parts out loud to fully get what was happening. it was alright.
