Witch's Block

I picked this book up because I really liked the premise - a writer gets cancelled for lying about seeing ghosts, and then ends up actually being able to see them. This short book included a lot more magic(al creatures) than I expected, but the magic system so far seems a bit underdeveloped, but who knows! It felt like the prologue to a larger plotline, so that may improve in the sequels.

At the centre, this is supposed to be a murder mystery, but the mystery wasn't my favourite. I wish there were more solid clues throughout the story to be able to figure it out. The resolution felt too quick, and the culprit lacked a solid motive.

6/10 - Felt underdeveloped, but I will still check out the rest of the series!
