Bordering on the ridiculous.

Even fantasy needs a certain element of plausibility. Magic has laws and rules, just as science does. In this book and its sequels, there are no rules. Emily learns she is a witch at 28 years old. Within a couple of days, she is teleporting, time traveling and conjuring things as if she had done it all her life. Witches use magic for mundane things like tidying a room, or doing the dishes. They conjure things out of thin air, everything from a pizza to a castle. I simply could not get into this book, because the profligate use of magic, and the complete lack of a plausible framework of magical rules irritated me. I do not recommend this book, or this series.
