3.0

It was very plotty, but the characters are infuriatingly static. Aggressively unchanging, not nearly as charming as the author wants them to be.

It’s first of like twenty books, I certainly won’t be reaching for no2 right away but maybe if I get a slump or find it in a Little Library I’d keep it in reserves.

2.0

I didn’t really like Harry and especially didn’t like the way women were described and written. 

I guessed who the bad guy was almost immediately, but don’t feel clever about it. It was pretty obvious. At one point I thought I was wrong, and that there was going to be a cool plot twist

with Monica revealing that she was the murderer

, but no. 

The magic and magical creatures seemed interesting and I wish they were explored more. I enjoyed reading about setting the faerie trap, for example, and the demon later on. 

I hear the later books get better.
