“Magic is real.” 
 
Can I just say how much I absolutely LOVE djinn and genie stories? It’s something that we need a lot more of. 
 
I am always trash for German Shepherds and the fact Nora has one? Named Bailey? The ultimate 10/10 badass in my book. 
 
We meet Nora, forever cursed with whenever a wish is made, disaster follows. All the while, leading Nora to her eventual death. 
 
Her journey, in not only finding who she truly is legacy wise, but herself and gaining her confidence spark back, was uplifting. She started out not knowing truly anything, just the basics of her familial curse, and ended up, yes with more questions than answers, but in a life she saved. 
 
I loved being on Nora’s journey with her, from self-discovery to self-confidence. 
 
Don’t even get me started on Rafe. He’s amazing. 
 
HEY LISSA. WHY DID YOU DO US DIRTY LIKE THAT. 
 
And all the fandom references? Kills me every time. 
 
“ ‘Does this one speak in complete sentences, or is he just here for the muscle?’ “ 
 
“This would be a great time to convince my inner self to stop checking out the enemy.” 
 
Tw // loss of parents, acrophobia, claustrophobia,
