I'm not sure I can say I'm *enjoying* this so far? I've seen so much hype over this series, I think I'm just a little disappointed so far.

There's something weird about this novel.. It's like all the imagination and innovation went into the magic systems, and the surrounding world. The actual plot is... weirdly bland? It's enjoyable enough to get through, but it's no revelation so far, that people promised.
