However, although it would’ve made the book even longer than the 517 pages it already (not a bad thing tbh), I would’ve maybe liked to hear more from Lucy, more about the Mage’s past and his plans for the future, more about Simon’s previous years at Watford, though I know Rowell never intended to write the whole series as Gemma T. And what he did at the end…that’s pretty damn courageous. Overall, I liked all the characters – Fiona wasn’t your typical upper-class magician, the whole idea of the numpties was brilliant (especially the name), seeing the Mage develop through the real-time storyline and Lucy’s narrative was awesome, Penelope just seemed utterly unafraid and completely badass, Baz was brilliantly sarcastic and funny in a really mean way (but so sweet nearer the end of the book) and Simon was inept in a trying-but-useless way, but then really pulled it out the bag when it was needed most. (Not that that would be a bad thing though) I thought Agatha’s ~outcome~ was interesting too…it showed the different opinions, kinda kept it more realistic than just having a group of ridiculously good magickal teenagers. Were we told that? Have I just forgotten? And Lucy as a character was pretty good, she added another dimension to it, though I kinda don’t think she was absolutely crucial to the plot? She made everything a little bit more supernatural and interesting though. I knew to expect it from another review, but it worked so well – especiallly when each character only had a few lines before it switched. Though to be honest I probably read to fast to spend time thinking up too many theories.Īnd I loved the way it was told from different perspectives. Talking of the Humdrum…that solution! I don’t think that had crossed my mind once. I like how it has definite parallels to Harry Potter but is unique in the most awesome ways – how the spells are cast, how the World of Mages (I was going to write the Wizarding World then, oops haha) is run, the Insidious Humdrum etc. (Best thing ever other than this book, obviously.

This is why blogging is the best thing ever full stop, guys. I didn’t, but I did send excited messages to my friends (especially the one who NEARLY BOUGHT IT BUT DIDN’T OMG TREASON instructing them to read it NOW), fangirled on Twitter (so much fangirling Twitter offered to translate from Estonian)…it was a difficult position, because none of my (non-bloggy) friends have read it and I don’t think many of them have read any of her books (HOW DARE THEY?!?) and so I couldn’t fangirl with them. I didn’t believe everyone else, but just like everybody said, as soon as I finished it I just wanted to reread it. In a, I-like-this-word-and-you-made-me-start-using-it-so-you’re-the-cause-way)) (I’ve started using that word a lot, mentally and on here. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, a LOT of flailing. SO ONWARDS AND UPWARDS TO THE MAIN EVENT. quickly and it’s the first book I finished in 2016 so yay for that ? Big thanks to my aunt for giving it to me and even bigger thanks to my mum for telling her I wanted it ). The point is: my aunt got me this for Christmas which made me SO VERY HAPPY and prompted lots of snapchats with heart-eyed emojis because a) I so wanted to read this book, b) it’s one of the first books that I’ve really been aware of having to wait to be released, c) i’m a cheapskate and poor when it comes to hardbacks and it was released in October so I decided to wait until Christmas to read it, d) IT’S RAINBOW ROWELL AND LINKS INTO FANGIRL, PEOPLE! I’M NOT SURE I CAN PHYSICALLY STOP WITH THESE CAPITALS, I’M QUITE ENJOYING SCREAM-FANGIRLING IN A TOTALLY SILENT WAY.
