1. Jane - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with "Tome of Magic". The writing felt flat and lacked depth, and the plot was predictable and unoriginal. The characters were one-dimensional, and I couldn't connect with any of them. Overall, it just felt like a poorly executed fantasy book. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a captivating read.
2. Rob - 1 star - "Tome of Magic" was a complete waste of my time. The prose was clunky and full of grammatical errors, making it difficult to follow the story. The world-building was weak, and I found it hard to immerse myself in the setting. The plot lacked coherence and was filled with gaping plot holes. I struggled to finish this book and would not recommend it to anyone.
3. Amanda - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "Tome of Magic" but was ultimately let down. The pacing was off, with long stretches of exposition followed by rushed action scenes. The character development was shallow, and I had a hard time caring about their fates. The magic system was poorly explained, leaving me confused and disconnected from the story. Overall, it felt like a missed opportunity for a great fantasy novel.
4. Mark - 2 stars - "Tome of Magic" had an interesting premise, but the execution was lacking. The writing style was repetitive and in need of editing.

The book had potential, but it fell short in delivering a satisfying story.
