I really WANTED to like this, but the heroine just declared, as a self-pep talk, "I didn't have magical powers, an MBA, or a boyfriend, but I did have..." I'm not sure in what world those equate or why a BF is something you work to earn (like an MBA).

The world building is nice; the plot and the way things wonderfully fall into the lap of the ordinary but somehow very special heroine is not.

It's also curiously asexual for a romance (3 girls, one bedroom, 2 boyfriends, and no mention of how any of them get ANY privacy). It feels like one of the hero's main draws is he... blushes? (

This book was a super fun listen. This world was like sex in the city meets the mortal instruments with a fun twist. I really loved the main character and loved the world building that was developed. It also reminded a bit of super hero show. It was a really fun read but just such a enjoyable read. I really loved listening to it. I also really loved the main characters and will def be checking out more books in this series soon! (

Not Bad. Predictable in most areas and the "revelations" weren't all that "revelatory" but a quick fun read. (

It was light, fun, and an easy read. I read it while staying a day with my daughter. She has read the series and recommended it.

I’d always heard that New York City was weird, but I had no idea just how weird until I got here.
