Sadly, I didn't enjoy this one nearly as much as the first one. Still love the premise, still love the characters, still love many elements of the writing style. This book suffered from focusing too much on the high school elements, I think. There were a lot of references and pieces that didn't feel natural/set the characters in a very specific time/space in an unhelpful way. The references had to be explained in the text, in a way that felt like the author was trying to make them fit. I still enjoyed it, but I hope that any future works in the universe focus more on the myths and magic fitting into the world.
