*Received from Netgalley, in exchange for an honest review* 
 I just don't feel much about this book. I generally liked it, but disliked so much about it. 
 The romance was, in my opinion, based on nothing and rubbed me the wrong way the whole book. Especially since the penalty for Kali and Deven touching or someone even thinking they were too close was death, they took really dumb, reckless risks. 
 There was a good amount of action between the ranking tournament and the antics at the end. The magical element was pretty good as well. Learning it's origin and what peoples' skills were. 
 I'd have to say my biggest dislike, sadly, was the main character, Kali. She was always talking about how ordinary and basic she was and I just wished she would've had some more self-confidence. I was actually wishing I'd learned more about her best friend because that girl seemed like she was made from tougher stock. 
 So overall, an ok read. I highly doubt I'll continue the series, although there was a cliffhanger at the end of this book.
