This book was utterly adorable, absolutely hilarious, and I enjoyed every page of it.
10/10 would read again
Definitely getting the next one!
Bonus: actual plot twist
Double bonus: every character actually has a personality!

The first 30% is legitimately slut shaming.
The students post videos of her and yell "shame the slut" while pointing, tripping, and recoding her as they do this.
Barbie is an idiot with no brain but even she doesn't deserve that.
Surprise, everyone hates her besides her one true mate, and big surprise, it ends on another cliffhanger.
I'm so done with this series and author.

I could not get into the written part of this but luckily it came with an audio version.
I guessed who the culprit was and how it would end less than halfway through.
A cute story. A sad story.

Read this with a bunch of friends. I did laugh, mostly at how ridiculous it was.
That being said:
I do not like the writing style.
There are so many things that annoyed me - flippant FMC who has been on the run for 8 years but somehow gets caught very easily multiple times and makes decisions without actual consideration of anything at all.
There are some funny bits and cute lines but things are incredibly repetitive and the math of her age doesn't fit.
She is very simple minded 90% of the time (she let's people walk all over her, doesn't care when things go sideways, and even though things have been explained to her multiple times she still assumes the human equivalent - health insurance, burying people, carrying shields - and while it got a chuckle the first time it was definitely overused)
There's plenty of slut shaming and fat shaming too
Even though she's "an echo and nullifies magic" she uses elemental magic frequently and quite well. She learns from watching and immediately masters everything she tries.
Very Wicker Basket of her (so clumsy, such expert, everyone fighting over her)
About halfway through I realized it was the movie She's the Man but with supernatural creatures.
It even ends like the soccer match (except apparently it's hockey but there's no playing)
Oh and apparently the only character I liked died but not really sure since she had like two lines, disappeared and someone mentioned she was "gone".

A very cute Ocean's 8 feeling book
Loved all the characters, was intrigued by the idea behind it, and delighted by the execution.
