I had hear mixed reviews on this one. So I didn't know what to expect. I liked it more then I thought I would.
I loved the two main characters, the banter between them, made the book for me. Ophelia was a bad ass. She was no damsel in distress. Blackwell was an interesting character from the start. Definitely he fell first. He was very protected of Ophelia from the start.
Loved the magic / mystery of the house, the ever changing rooms. Reminded me a bit of Hogwarts lol I liked the trials. I can see why some people complained there wasn't enough time spent on them. It was more Ophelia and Blackwell storyline that's for sure. The twist at the end my jaw drop to the floor. But it was perfect how it brought everything full circle.
5 Stars
