Well, I see why people like this series! Nicely fleshed out characters and complex sets of relationships. And creepy cool magic as a bonus.

I like Blue as a character - although she responds and reacts to a wide variety of different personality types, that's not all she does - she actually has agency. But certain aspects of her character seem tacked on, almost an afterthought, and those parts are less convin ...more
