Magic in the Air by Adrianna Schuh

This book had its great moments, but it also had not so great moments. I absolutely love the representation this book brings. The main character has cerebral palsy & was also a foster child. The downfall for me was that the MMC kind of sucked. He started out promising, but after the big conflict I couldn’t find him redeemable. I could rant about that whole scene, but I won’t because I don’t want to spoil it for anyone. It also felt a bit odd how often the characters would talk about their distrust but then escalate the relationship so quickly especially when the FMC has a child who is also involved within the relationship from the very beginning. 

As for the narration, I didn’t love it. The inflections felt off a lot of the time.  At times her voice would come across in a tone that seemed more fitting for older characters as opposed to characters in their late twenties. It was kind of distracting & would pull me out of the scene when what was happening didn’t really match with the pace and tone being used. 

All in all I do look forward to the next book in the series because my main complaints are with the MMC & he wouldn’t be a main character in the next one. 

Thank you to NetGalley & Dreamscape Media for the advance copy.
