This book was such typical YA that I was bored to death reading this. Historical already isn’t my genre so the fact that this book gave me such a basic story didn’t make it better. The twists were predictable and, frankly, the amount of twists was getting tiring. 
The magic system was established very poorly. I don’t really know how it works and everything was so vague. The magic we saw was so forgettable, there’s a big chance I’ll forget there was a fantasy element to this story at all. 
The main character is your main YA heroine. I could tell you very little about her beyond that. She wasn’t an interesting story teller and a lot of her emotions fell flat for me. They also kept repeating the same conversation: Inez wants to stay, find out what happened and make things better, the other characters try to stop her. And then they make the point again that she’s so stubborn. 
For some reason I thought Whit was a middle aged man so that he was the love interest surprised me. I had to reevaluate the image I had of him a little there. Liked their dynamic then though. 

Overall: Very basic story that gave me very little to care about.
