MY RATING

4

MY REVIEW

The Midnight Spell is a great fantasy read that incorporates just about everything one can ask for in a novel. The entire reading experience is a ton of fun, and I enjoyed every minute of it.

Both Christy and Adam are good characters with unique personalities. They both have relatable qualities and real voices that make them extremely likeable and fun to read about.

The plot is the same way. I mean, it isn't everyday that two teenagers experiment with spells and magic.

Not to mention, the pacing was spot on, keeping the pages turning with fun and elements of suspense that kept me wanting to read more.

The relationships of The Midnight Spell were beautifully crafted. The friendship of Adam and Christy was as powerful as it was realistic. Even the relationships with their parents were great, and resulted in some funny exchanges.

One thing I really loved was how real parts of The Midnight Spell felt. Most fantasies seem completely far fetched, but this one was more believable, despite it being fic to on.

All in all, The Midnight Spell is a highly entertaining read I can recommend to fans of fantasy and other genres alike.
