I’m enjoying this series so much. The first book I read this year was RF Kuang’s Babel. I didn’t know anything about silver magic until that book. Feels appropriate to be nearing the end of the year on silver magic too. Excited to read the third in the series and to check out her other books.

I enjoyed this book. It was pretty cute.
Gabe finally opened up about his past, Sylvia meets a few new people, Alex & Daisy are still drawn to each other, Willie is still Willie!
There was another mystery & this time Sylvia did a great job putting the pieces together.
Gabe is dealing with some things - his engagement, his magic, three attempted kidnappings, reporters.....
I'm interested in seeing what happens next.
