Reviews for "The Science of Magic: How Magicians Perform Illusions"
- John - 1/5
I found "Magic part 1" to be extremely boring and predictable. The plot was cliché and lacked originality. The characters were one-dimensional and lacked depth, making it hard to invest in their stories. The dialogue was also weak and lacked any real substance. Overall, I was very disappointed with "Magic part 1" and would not recommend it to others.
- Sarah - 2/5
"Magic part 1" had so much potential, but it fell flat for me. The pacing was inconsistent, with some parts dragging on and others feeling rushed. I also found the world-building to be confusing and poorly executed. The magic system was never properly explained, making it hard to follow and understand the events of the story. Additionally, the romance felt forced and lacked chemistry between the characters. While the concept had promise, the execution left much to be desired.

Additionally, the plot was predictable and lacked any real surprises or twists. I wanted to enjoy this book, but unfortunately, it didn't captivate me like I had hoped.
