★ “In addition to high-caliber lyrical writing and thought-provoking style, de la Cruz ('Blue Bloods') also provides a vehicle for reflection. This book combines elements of magic, a dark sense of danger, and characters with powers who need to decide whether they could or should use them. . . A must-have.” —School Library Journal, starred review “In her signature lush prose and twisty plotting, De la Cruz's cinematic, emotionally charged duology starter sets realistic romantic tension against a compelling central magical mystery that will have readers eager to find out what happens in book two.” —Booklist “This duology opener, with its shadowy library, cobblestone streets, and bookshop cafe . . . captures cozy dark academia at its best.” —Kirkus Reviews “The protagonists’ electric banter and shifting relationships act as an emotional anchor as the kinetic plot unfolds throughout a tense and exciting series opener that will have readers clamoring for the next volume.” —Publishers Weekly
