**Disclaimer - I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.**I was absolutely stunned by the quality with which this book was written. Truly. The dialogue is snappy and smart. The narrative and descriptions are lovely and gorgeously worded. The writing drew me in time and time again.The reason why this book is a 3 instead of 4 star read for me is the story pacing. I found myself completely invested in most of the characters - cheering them on and wishing them their comeuppance when needed. But I wanted the story to progress more quickly so that I could get to the meat of the story and watch these characters I already cared about, deal with the burgeoning magic at hand instead of just ignoring it or wishing it out of existence.I would have also loved some additional world building and background for the characters themselves so that we could look at and be a part of their lives from a broader perspective than just the mental hospital.I am thoroughly intrigued by this story however, and am grateful to the author for the chance to read and review this wonderful book and I will look forward to picking up the next one!
