About this listen

Nineteen-year-old Charlie has been dealt a bad hand from the day she was born. Found in a trash can as a baby, she's been shipped from one foster home to another, each one worse than the last. When she's offered an escape, she takes it. But fate isn’t ready to be kind just yet.

After a brutal car crash, Charlie is dragged into an unfamiliar world of magic with promises of a fresh start at the Magisterium of Magic, a prestigious school for the rich and entitled. Here, she’s told that she’s a Royal, a member of the highest tier of Magic Users, with the kind of power most people would do anything to steal or control.

When a student abruptly leaves and she catches the School Master lying about it, she starts to question if the motives of her rescuers are pure. Or do these devious liars have a darker reason for finding her?

With the help of a crew of troublemakers, Charlie dives into one of the magic world's oldest mysteries, the death in the North Tower and the cunning ghost who haunts it. The identity of the ghostly woman and truth about the student’s departure could help Charlie decide who she can trust. Or it could prove that she should have trusted her instincts all along.

I came across this book through the recommendation of Ashley.

Overall I liked the story, though I found Charlie a bit frustrating as she made foolish decisions, frequently showed bad judgement and her constant distrust of certain characters, yet blind and naive trust of others was a bit annoying, though I suppose that’s her confidence developing and guiding herself out of the previous trauma that was her life.

I do like the relationship building between the characters though, particularly Charlie and Kale.

I’ll be listening to the next book when it comes out, to see how this story matures.

I found it a bit frustrating, but I enjoyed the story

Finally a new series that's kept me listening.
