literally two pages later she’s like “i should’ve left when i had the chance, i’m not strong enough for this yet.”
yeah, OBVIOUSLY.
god, i fucking hate when the fmc is so fucking stupid.
and they’re still all acting like teenagers.
i kind of hate all of them.
why is this book 600 pages?
if there’s no character development in this where everyone behaves like grownups, i will riot.

i should dnf this because it’s incredibly annoying, but it’s just entertaining enough to keep me reading.
so, the dragon attacks and salem literally thinks to herself “surely most of these people aren’t new to magic like me?” and SEVEN sentences later, she gets all pissed off about them not wanting her help.
girl…you answered your own question.
they’re not letting you help because you’re NEW TO MAGIC.

i want to like this book, but i’m having a rough time. the outfit descriptions are very My Immortal coded, with the “my goth outfit is weird” or whatever the fuck she says in the beginning.

also she’s fighting with River for no particular reason, instead of talking to him like an adult. actually, now that im thinking about it, i don’t actually remember how old they’re supposed to be.

i hope they mature.
