I'm trying to find any redeemable qualities that make me feel better for the time I spent reading it. I could have put it down, but the raving reviews made me think that it would get better.

It didn't.

I loathed it. With passion.

I did like the magic system, and in fact it was what drew me to the book at first.

Sadly, I found the characters bland and annoying. The footnotes were the cherry on top, as I feel they were extremely condescendent.

I'm very glad to hear that you enjoyed it tho! That's what books are for!
