Easy, non fussy read. Could be a little juvenile at times but such good banter and the final half had me:

I really loved the premise of the book but I don’t think it had enough time to get everything across in a reader friendly way. I did think things popped up out of no where sometimes and the character interactions sometimes felt like there were no reason for them or unrealistic.
I did however love the concept and also loved reading a fantasy with a black lead!
