This was a very fun book and I'm glad I read it, but/and I also agree with what other reviewers have said about the book trying to cram too many things into one book and not developing the story elements, characters, or worldbuilding fully. I'm definitely interested in what Maggie Tokuda-Hall writes in the future!
