How I Magically Messed Up My Life in Four Freakin' Days

This is a very cute story. Funny, fast paced and entertaining. The narrator is adorable! Some unnecessary swear words, somewhat offensive, but not too bad.

This book immediately grabbed my attention and I felt the adventure in the tale. Overall I would put the story above average but didn’t blow me away. The story arc was good with funny moments and I didn’t predict every twist and turn. The charter development made me care about the characters, but a bit on the immature side. The world building was interesting, but had some minor holes in my opinion. Overall a good casual read

I got a kick out of this book. I thought it was funny. To me it maybe leans a little more towards YA even though the characters are in high school but I didn’t mind. It gave me some major Percy Jackson vibes with a hint of Harry Potter with the whole “you’re a wizard!” and discovering magic is indeed real. I loved the idea of a cellphone that has any and all magical information stored on it with apps included. I mean, we are in the 21st century after all. The story moves at a steady pace from beginning to end. Although I kind of felt the battle was a little too quick to happen and maybe a little anticlimactic. It just seemed to happen too fast and not enough tension with the main villain. I’m not sure I completely trust Eric yet either. I’m curious to see how Bryant takes to his magical abilities and I definitely want to see what roles Devon and Elizabeth play in all this.

The narrator did a great job capturing the awkwardness of Bryant’s character. As well as Devon’s suave confidence and Elizabeth’s no nonsense take charge attitude.
