The characters were interesting and as were the ways the high school was both magical and utterly ordinary. Ivy's resentment at the wasted magic was understandable, as was the student's "waste" of magic because they're just kids and it's common for them, not the extraordinary thing it is for Ivy.
It was a very well built world. I'd like to spend more time there.

Yeah, it takes place at a boarding school for magical teens, but it's definitely not Harry Potter.
I would have rated it higher, except I feel like it has low reread-value - but the first read was SO fun!!
