Short, fast, intense, and overall a really fun read.
I read this whole book in about two hours. While the beginning didn't really grab me, the clues that led to the twist were there from the start, and I had a really fun time picking them out during the finale. The particular phrases the narrator used were annoying before they became charming, but I feel they lent to strong characterization more than hurt my opinion of the story.
The worldbuilding in this book was really cool. The more I think about the setup of the world and the way the magic system works, the more I want to learn! I especially liked how the author portrayed angels and the idea of heaven, as well as magic practicioners' connections to the morals of the bible.
3.4/5 stars rounded down, might change once I've digested the book a bit …

3.4/5 stars rounded down, might change once I've digested the book a bit more. I recommend it for readers that want a quick, light read to easily finish in a few days, or two and a half hours if they really have the time (like I did lol). Good for lovers of noir romances, murder mysteries, and magic. Happy reading y'all. :)
