Had a bit of a slow start but once it picked up more I started to really like it. Also bonus points for the sick magic system

I had a difficult time getting into the world of this book at first. While likely because I was distracted when listening to the beginning of the audiobook, it took a few chapters to really understand the magic system within the book and who all the characters are. Once I got into it though, I thought this book was really interesting! The magic controlled by phases of the moon was super interesting. Likewise, the dark academia videos were also very interesting. I could definitely see some of the plot twists coming from a mile away, but overall I enjoyed the book and will likely listen to the second book too — especially after the giant mysterious cliffhanger it ends with!

I liked the story, but I thought there was a lot of chatter: things that we knew that were repeated several times, a lot of explaining things that were already clear.
