I absolutely loved this book!! Usually when books are really hyped I tend to put off reading them for a while. I don't do this on purpose it just kind of happens. That was the case with this book and now I am wishing I had read it sooner and I am also wishing I had the rest of the books in this series because I want more. I can't believe this is a debut novel. I loved absolutely everything about it. The world, the plot, the magic, the characters. Especially the characters!! The banter between the two main characters was amazing and I found myself having to hold back laughter because I was in public when reading it and I didn't want people staring at me. There were some reveals all throughout the book that I never saw coming but once they were revealed I was like oh yeah that makes more sense now. Also I loved the character growth in this book especially with Reid I just hope his faith isn't shaken too much. I can not wait to get my hands on the second book because I need more of these characters.
