Really I give this book a 3.5. There is a lot I liked about this book, namely the magic system, the dual worlds at play with each other, and the main character who was both different from the typical protagonist but still a lot of fun. However what I think really made this book drag, especially at the end, was the relationship aspect. I found myself just uninterested in the main relationship compared to anything else going on. Perhaps it was the instant love or the its tropey nature but the fact that the book ended with that as it's focus made me start wishing for the end.

May continue the series but I'm not in a rush to do so.
