2.5/5

This was just a weird book. The structure was weird. The sort of romance was weird. The pacing was weird. The magic was weird. The relationships were weird. The heist was weird.

There's a lot of elements that I liked but they were just so oddly combined and it didn't work for me. The characters were all flat, the plot was flimsy, the pacing was oddly slow. I don't know how to explain it other than I felt uncomfortable for a lot of the book.

It's definitely set up for a sequel but I don't see myself continuing on.
