This was such an entertaining read

I loved that we had a male main character and heard the story through his point of view. It made me realise that it is not often I read a book with a MMC POV throughout. 

The narration from Quinn’s perspective was really interesting and pretty funny. It definitely helped bring the story along. 

Aimed at young adults, it is an easy read with a captivating plot. I liked the characters and loved the inclusion of all the paranormal creatures. 

I am definitely not the target audience for this book and it is definitely suited to a much younger age group but I still really enjoyed it and would recommend for younger readers
