Vomit-inducing disaster

The plot is contrived as hell : FL bound in a magical contract to the ML because she was in her neighbor's apartment and the mages didn't bother to check who she was when she opened the door? Right, good start book... 😑

The FL is insufferable. The premise of a witch who didn't care about learning magic or gaining power but only about doing the least amount of work seemed interesting on paper and is what drew me to this book, but it's executed horribly. Her "laziness" matters only as far as the plot allows, which is not much. It seems "slouch witch" means a witch who constantly talks about how she would like nothing better than be left alone to watch movies at home, and yet lets herself be dragged by the plot while complaining even though it makes no sense for her to go with it.

It …

Review of "Slouch Witch (The Lazy Girl's Guide To Magic) (Volume 1)" on 'Goodreads'

Really enjoyed this.

It's funny, easy read with an interesting world and a puzzling crime to solve. The romance fits in with the rest of the story and I think it works.

I'll probably end up reading the next in the series.
