First off, the characters were not the greatest. I really wanted to like the main character Sarah, but by golly, for a supposedly smart person she was pretty damn stupid. Max felt kind of one dimensional to me and their romance fell flat. Nico was meh, made worse as he is supposedly hella old? Also, I want to mention how utterly stupid it is that the four hundred year old dwarf thing is right there in the synopsis. In the book it feels like it shouldve been a cool little plot twist/reveal, but we know all along so its like ??.? Charlotte Yates keeps getting called the most powerful US senator but why? What makes her so powerful? Shes not exactly a particularly good antagonist either
For the first 3/4 of the book, I was in a state of either confusion or boredom. It wasnt until the last quarter of the book that the plot really picked up and I was finally getting sucked in to the story. Things were happening and I got all excited. The adrenaline got pumping and things were awesome. I was quite prepared to give this book four stars, but then the ending happened The end was less climatic and more confusing as hell. Im still not 100% on what went down.
But I DONT WANT YOU TO THINK THIS ENTIRE BOOK WAS TERRIBLE, because it wasnt. I mean, MAGIC! And secret passageways, and a prince, and history, and music, and Prague, and alchemy. I wish I knew more about music and Beethoven because I feel like I wouldve enjoyed this book so much more.
There are a lot of cool and interesting things happening in this book, but then again there is also a fair bit of ehh and huh?. Kinda average.
