Uggggh. This book was just ok. I would rate it lower, but the last three chapters made up for the rest. 

I’m glad that people love it, but it wasn’t for me. Look, I can believe in vampires, werewolves, and witches all living in Vancouver. What I can’t believe is that a 23 year old was smart enough to run a successful bakery yet clueless enough about every other aspect of her life. Sure, a 23 year old clueless person I’ll believe. Don’t make her a successful business owner. If she’s a successful business owner, don’t make her clueless and 23. Age her up. Surprisingly, this ruined the fantasy for me. I was onboard with all the other ridiculousness. 

There’s a lot of interesting things that could’ve been fun, but it felt like this was a rough draft, not the start to a 9 book series
