Edited: This is a great YA. If you are a teenager who loves shameless flirting in a magical fantasy setting then this is for you!
My review is from a mature perspective who has read a lot of great authers...
A story intriguing enough to overpower the authors somewhat clumsy writing.
Yes I will read the next one but...
Hunger Games meets Triwizard Tournament.
Half arsed love triangle.
Most of the story/dialogue is flirting.
The shoehorned tropes and cringe writing cripple the plot.
Despite the lack of originality and predictable turns.. the characters are likable enough to have you invested and the finale has you wanting to know what happens next.
