The author is intentionally keeping them from getting together and married. Why? I have no reason maybe to make you buy the next book. Well, jokes on you these are free at my library. Seriously there is no reason for them not to be married yet. I also didn't realize till they went to dinner that they never go on dates.
I will say the mystery was one of the more enjoyable ones. Charlie is clever with her detective tactics. Ugh, I am so ill at Lincoln. He has a mother and all these half-siblings and still acting like a closed-off prick face. Alice's magic also doesn't fit the narrative well and seems forced. But this is an easy read and I'm invested.
Oh, you thought I was done talking about the romance well you were wrong. We now just get to watch this hot and cold relationship till the end of time. Kiss. No wait too much. Kiss. No, we shouldn't. Repeat. The romance has dragged on so long there is not even any more meat on the bone omg. I think I'm just hate reading at this point....more
Well, I'm definitely not here for the romance anymore. It's simmered so long that it's just a big dried clump.

I will say the ending made up for a little bit of it but not much. Still, it was blush-worthy.
Omg, could Lady Dick Harcourt just drop off the face of the earth already? Yeah let's help her I mean she only almost got you killed, threw herself at your man, got you sent away, and only wants someone more titled than herself because she is power-hungry. There is definitely no one else more deserving. We should pity her. "Okay just breath" I'm over it. Totally over it.
I do like Andrew Buchanan for some reason. Even though he is an idjoit just like Seth and Lincoln. But he is real and it's a breath of fresh air. Charlie and Lincoln have grown but they still bother me..... a lot. I feel like it will be a cold day in hell before they get married. I am loving the gang back together though. The family banter is what I read for now....more
Yes! Not-going-to-put-up-with-your-crap Charlie is back. We missed you. I was really getting upset with how weak she had become compared to book one. Yes! Not-going-to-put-up-with-your-crap Charlie is back. We missed you. I was really getting upset with how weak she had become compared to book one. Charlie let Lincoln kick her out of the house and stuff her into some school far away. That was not the girl I met in The Last Necromancer. That Charlie was clawing her way to survival. Literally shooting at Lincoln for kidnapping her.
Lincoln had his reasons I know but I was so glad Charlie became cold to him. You can't expect to be trusted after something like that. Charlie was right your promises mean nothing anymore. The found family keeps growing and growing. Doyle and Lady Vickers was a lovely addition. And Lady Vickers meddling is hilarious and much appreciated haha.
I know the points in history announced here can be scrutinized till the cows come home but I think they are enjoyable and aren't essential enough to the story to be complained about. Again I am in no way waiting on the romance anymore. I realized I've already thrown my chips in and am here till the end. Oh, also Lady Harcourt can go f*ck herself....more
