4.5 because I was not hooked from the beginning but by the end I could die for Alex Stern and her squad.

Pleasantly surprised by all the fantasy aspects, and the relationships that Alex formed, all the snippets of "romance" were exactly up my alley (that I wanted more lol), and I enjoyed the plot and the magical tidbits associated with it^^

EDIT : i still think of this book, so the 4.5 stars is going to be 5 stars on goodreads^
