There are our bad friends. Friends who serve to bring the worst out of us. There are our good friends. Friends who inspire us to greater heights, support us, and sometimes act as an example for us.
Then there are our good, bad, friends. The ones who get us out of trouble as often as they get us into it. The ones who are with you when you accumulate those stories that you’re probably better off never telling in public...for legal reasons.
For Jilbert Sebastian, Jacqueline Marrow was all three at once.
Kind, Brave, Hardworking, Loyal, Arrogant, Selfish, Impetuous, Glory Hungry, and the farthest thing in the world from risk-averse, Jack Marrow seemed bound to either be the hero or villain, or her own legend.
Now it seems that young “Jill” is fated to be along for the ride. Bound to look after, and act as an accomplice to, the young runaway heiress as she sets off to find her fortunes and make her mark in the world.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, it’s looking like he might not mind the situation as much as he claims. They’re best friends after all...and maybe a little bit more. Thus begins the tale of the legendary Empty Archivist Society.

This story has an interesting premise and the characters and their interactions are quite good, the only thing bothering me is that the author seems to neglect/forget a lot of information, so although I have a good image of the characters my understanding of the world is spotty at best

Plain and dull. It feels like a nutshell of another story, skipping a lot part of it.
We can't feel emotions of characters as if they are one dimensional. The story feels pretty much like plain text or pile of words just narrating things and events without any depth to them. Whater I do, I can't immerse myself into the story.
3.5/5.

I feel like I'm reading a summary of events rather than a story in each chapter. Anything and everything that should be shown is sidelined, and we just get a couple of paragraphs outlining what happened. The author has a lot of interesting ideas, but they never describe them, and if they do it's just a couple sentences. This is a classic example of why you should Show instead of Tell.
