Super fun read. Kinda slow in the middle, and the ending was CRAZY. I enjoyed the very whimsical magic system, and the descriptions for how wielding her magic works. The plot made me feel angry and sad for how the MC is treated by practically every character in the story. It did not have a “happy ending”, but I have a feeling we are no where near the “end”. I don’t know where the story will go in the sequel, but I am intrigued and am rooting for her happily ever after.
