Grey Magic by Jeffe Kennedy

5.0

Ms. Kennedy really upped the tension and action in this chapter!

In this chapter of Gabriel and Nic's travels, a lot of their pushes to make change and challenge the institution are coming back to haunt them from Nic's punishment from running away to her father demand for her return. I loved reading about the rebuilding of the House of Phel and the new characters coming from different houses. It built the world a bit more for me.

Gabriel and Nic are adorable where one is serious and the other is determined to change the status quo. They compliment each other well and the spice is good between them.

I have mentioned in my previous review, the world in Bonds of Magic is dark because of the oppressive nature of the familiars and the control established by the institutions of wizards. That said, I felt it is balance by that attitudes of Gabriel and Nic who seek to change things and the growing support they receive from others who see the good.

With how this one ended, there is plenty more to unpack in this world and it makes me excited to follow this journey. I can't wait to read more about Gabriel and Nic!
