3.5

This one was sort of…the reason for the boa who could turn people invisible being in it was kind of weak and didn’t make sense, and the reason why the bad side of the family wanted to keep it around didn’t make much sense either. The great great aunt who could shape shift was a much more interesting and sinister character but I don’t quite understand why she was introduced in this book. I do enjoy Lysander and Tancred quite a bit tho.
