The best book I have read all year. Why did I wait so long? I couldn’t book this down. Sure, the first 200 pages can be rough, but once you really dive into it, this world doesn’t let you go. I loved everything from the modern world to the mystery to the deception. I cannot wait to start the second book!
It felt like nothing was happening from pages 0 to around 650... then everything happened in the last 140 pages with like 5 ish pages leading you onto the next book.
Spice level is low... this book gets recommended with Quicksilver, but it's nowhere near as spicy, which isn't a bad thing as the story and world are interesting

Also a re read. Read from jan 15-jan 18. I love this one yes its chunky maybe could be shorter but I love the story, the friendships, the plot. That whole last couple chapters. Its adventures , it's dark the msytery their trying to uncover, funny at times i love Ruhn and his friends I love lehaba. Bryce is a badass. Made me feel all the feels
I absolutely adore Crescent City. The characters are so cool and fun. I got attached right away, which only made it hurt more when the bad things happened. I was obsessed. The blend of technology and magic was really cool, too.
Bryce Quinlan is certainly a new favorite FMC for me. She is strong, brave, and witty - and her moments of vulnerability make her so relatable. I love the heavy focus on friendship, and the slow burn romance with Hunt. The dialogue is clever and the plot kept driving forward. I can’t wait for book 2.
