Tristan and Libby…?

I think I read somewhere that the author wrote fanfiction before this and maybe that’s why the writing is so stuck on these interpersonal scenes that get us nowhere with the plot. I’m waiting for something more to unfold. Sigh.

Waiting for more of a plot here. Parisa seems to be the odd one out but beyond studying and knowing that one of them is going to get kicked out at the end of the year, they’re not doing much? What else is going to happen?

Okay, it’s definitely overwritten but I’m not hating this. I do find Libby and Nico’s back and forth annoying AF (are they gonna be will they/won’t they or is Nico into his friend Gideon?), but the others aren’t bothering me. I am worried some might be a bit too one-note, but I’ll see as I get farther in.

A lot of info dumping right now and yet I’m still confused by the magic in this story. If Libby grew up in a regular household, how did her university know to pick her for admissions?
