If Kirkus liked it, chances are, I don't. Especially not with a tired plot that once again has a female writer subjugate her female character to a dominant male: "When Prince Lucas discovers her magical talents, Jessa must train under his tutelage as a Color Alchemist... but the prince has a secret agenda." Must she? I'd be interested in reading it if she rebelled, but no. Why write an original YA novel like that when you can follow the path most trampled that's already been done to death by two score of other authors?
