“Captivating. Ashley Bustamante expertly draws the reader into the Magus world where Red and Blue magic thrive and Yellow magic is outlawed. Vivid felt like reading a fresh new take on a dystopian society and something akin to The Story Peddler’s magic. If that isn’t enough, the relationship between Ava and Elm kept me flipping pages for more.” – Candice Pedraza Yamnitz, author of Unbetrothed–Candice Pedraza Yamnitz
