The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo

Did not finish book. Stopped at 27%.
I feel like I’ve read this book before…
It took the tropes and threw them into the Spanish Inquisition. 

I do appreciate the idea of religious commentary using magic. I think I would like first person a little better.

I just feel like it is too slow after the first few chapters. I might come back to it later.
