I'm disappointed again because it didn't fall in line with what I'd expected from the character - but that's my own fault for having expectations.
The major problem I had was their voices - we finally get to see what's up with Winter and what his powers really entail but then the author gave him this clingy, needy personality that I couldn't have predicted from past books. I can't really relate to Evil Twink Energy so it just seemed off for this character - I definitely expected/wanted more dark, mysterious angst. He just instantly fell in love to this level that's not healthy just because he has a Weasley kink or something? On top of that, I found Fox very obnoxious. The plot itself is interesting though the traits given to witches was a weird choice and I can only assume it's just a MacGuffin because while Zelda is more in-line with what you'd expect from a witch, it just so happens all the other witches are murderous, cantankerous old assholes which leads Fox to be a squib? Weird choice.
