This was an enjoyable, well-paced and adventurous read. It reminded me a lot of the general plot of Tangled, Yumeko herself reminding me of the loving naivety of Rapunzel, which I loved. Don't get me wrong though - this book stands apart as its own story. I loved learning about the different types of yokai and how they worked in the world of Igamoto; for example, in the challenges they created for our main characters, and also how they affected the character building of Yumeko and Tatsumi. The opening chapter was simply incredible, giving a sample of the intrigue and adventure to come. I did wish we got a bit more character work overall, but obviously this is just the first book in this series, and there is plenty more time for it to happen. I am looking forward to reading the sequel.
