The concept is so cool but I just didn't care for the story as much. Still undecided about whether I will read the next book because I had to force myself through 80% of the boring parts of the book to get to the interesting 20%. I understand why the characters are ages 12-14 as it makes sense for the "discovery of magical powers" storyline but the rest of the story would make so much sense if the characters were older. If there's a time jump for the rest of the books I might consider them
