A Local Habitation

I will say, this book was a slight improvement in some way compared to the first book. In some other ways? Not really.

Toby's liege, Sylvester has a niece who has her own tiny little dominion independent from any other lands where she runs her fae tech company. For some reason she can't be reached for weeks, which makes his uncle worry, so Toby is sent there, where she finds mysterious murders, of course.

I will be honest, Toby is still a bloody idiot. She is the queen of angst, of “but my life is so bad, honestly, I am the unloved stepchild of this whole magical world” where she is basically chased around by people who inexplicably adore her and would do anything for her sorry ass to have it great. She is the type to fuck up her own life, though. To just always make the stupid decision and push people away for whatever teenage emo reason she can invent in that stupid head of hers.
Because man, Toby is duuuuumb. Now of course she is really out of touch with a lot of modern things, as she was a freaking fish in a pond for 14 years. That is cool. But. Imagine the boss of a company. Maybe you are an awesome person who actually has a company, god knows I am not. So this person owns a company. Is it suspicious to you if said person can operate the generators of the building? Because MY boss knows all the machines he has. Toby thinks that's suspicious, though. She also doesn't think phones not working at a tech company should be considered suspicious and a sign of someone messing with them.
The worst is, though... how she is not CHARMING dumb. Some characters just act kind of dumb and you still like them, because they are sweet in some way. (Yes, Harry Dresden. He is an adorable idiot who doesn't take himself too seriously and you feel for the guy.)
At one point there is a potential love interest for Toby in EVERY FUCKING ROOM. Like she is here with Tybalt, but then goes over to Connor, but then Alex pisses her off, so she runs back to Tybalt. Like honestly, she has no respect for others or for herself. Will the next book happen at Camp I-Love-Toby-Daye?

I liked the idea of a magical tech company, but it wasn't really used as much as it could have been.

I will be honest, I am quitting this series. It's cheesy, it's stupid, it's badly written. It has idiotic characters. I even looked at the Wikipedia to figure out if this hot mess of a Mary Sue harem fantasy of a trainwreck was ever going to get better. No. It seems like this will go on being about everyone loving Queen Emo McCheesestein's ass.
So bye, stupid series.
