Zero Sight (Zero Sight, #1)

Not a HUGE Young Adult reader, but when I read about this book as a "gritty modern-day Harry Potter" I had to do it! I think this book is a bit uneven but REALLY interesting. It is definitely a less rosy view on a teen with magic, I really loved the love interest and how she was an outcast, and the precocious lead character was really engaging, especially considering his somewhat challenging past. Towards the end of the book I wanted the characters to grow a bit more, but all in all a really fun read, especially if you like teen protagonists. The reality of the magic system was very grounded as well, which I enjoyed too.

Haven't heard about this book, but I recommend another "gritty modern-day Harry Potter" book called 'The Magicians', by Lev Grossman.

I just finished this myself. I tend to agree with your review. I found the book uneven, though there were definitely sections where I couldn't put the book down. Clearly this doesn't work as a standalone, which does bother me some but I plan to read the next one
Added to my "to-read" list. Gotta love when the magic system is well grounded!
