I've been reading the Rivers of London series lately.

It's kinda refreshing to read something set in more or less the real world - less of a learning curve per chapter!

I love Rivers of London. Imagine, a magic apprentice with a scientific "does it always do that?" bent! A police officer protagonist who thinks the rule of law is a good idea. A series where people who stumble across magic don't get reconned into forgetting it! I could go on.

Also, if anyone's looking for some first class RoL fic, I can recommend these: https://archiveofourown.org/users/lightgetsin/pseuds/lightgetsin/works?fandom_id=301813
