adventurous challenging dark emotional funny mysterious relaxing tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

From all the volumes regarding the College, this one is my favourite so far; I'm inclined to believe this is due to
the inclusion of small segments with Chise's and Elias' adventures in their country side house
which is a lovely contrast to the lack of Chise-Elias interaction focus present during the College Arch. 
I truly enjoyed the character development present in this volume, a strong must have in comparison to the previous volumes where I felt a slow paced world and background building seemed to swallow the narrative. 
This volume has one of my favourite quotes so far: "the rain hides away the smell of the sun".
