(This is technically a reread! I'm binge-reading it instead of page by page like I did the first time to see how the story flows!)

We see more into Percy's back story, and at this point, she's become way more of a likable character than in her first introduction. She's a clumsy and awkward person, but you can tell she has a genuine desire to help other people. We get a bit more in the world-building, such as learning a little bit more about the Academy. We also see that Percy and Leeds have grown a little bit closer in their time working together. Also, in that one scene, the artist's AMAZING way of using color to elevate a scene gets shown. I've read the full-color edition of Lucky Penny, so I'm already familiar with their excellent use of color, so it's so nice to see it here as well. Something about the vibrant colors just makes the scene feel out of this world!

Another gorgeous chapter. The covers are darker and have the same vibe and look to it as one of my favorite scenes in it. Now we are really starting to delve into the magic, and as she dusts off some books and more yarn than fits her wrist we're finally seeing Percy in her element. But not quite there yet, and by there I mean actually using magic or figuring things out for good.

Despite Percy's moments and that one spooky moment with amazing visuals, my favorite thing about this chapter is definitely Leeds. He has rizz now! They've cooperated before, but now he and Percy are starting to be fun together.

My favorite chapter out of the three I've re-read just now.
