This was an intriguing starter.

I initially thought I wouldn't like the concept of the mirror world - it felt kind of lazy and there were bits that felt silly - Faebook for instance. But actually I liked most of it.

I'm a sucker for a school setting - since the days of The Naughtiest Girl, up through Harry Potter and to this, school settings are fun.

I liked the twins. Interestingly, I found them easier to distinguish early on, as the book progressed I felt they started to sound more like each other and they were only distinguished in terms of what Heir they were associated with. But overall I enjoyed their perspective and I was rooting for them.

As far as the heirs went - I'm not adverse to a bit of a bully romance - I've never grown out of the 'being horrible to someone you like' mode of affection. But I'm not feeling the love for any of them yet - they all sound kind of Jock/Preppy American on the scale of attractiveness which really isn't my thing.

I am absolutely intrigued to see how this develops so despite my moderate scoring I am absolutely going to keep going with this. The world building, the history and the plot has a lot of potential.
