THIS BOOK!!! It started with so much promise! After the first 40% I was ready to give this 5 stars. I loved the magic, the world, the imagination. Then it got dark. So incredibly dark. It went from folding paper to blood magic and gore. It went from Harry Potter magic to The Evil Within/Resident Evil. It became a complete mess. It also perpetuates a relationship between teacher and student. NOT OK! Someone needs to get the rights to the world and make a new book out of it.
An interesting take on magic, to be sure. I felt disappointed that romance was brought into this story, as otherwise the plot and subject matter was fairly unique.
I loved the magic system. It's cute and charming. However, as a historical fiction novel it mostly failed. If we are in Victorian London why does the dialogue sound very American and not even American for the time period? That was a bit jarring. But I really loved the story overall.
