The romance felt a little tacked on and restrained, which honestly feels like the phrasing I use for the YA novels that I love best, so that should be a compliment. I appreciated, too, that Keita has drunk his Respect Women juice. I hate when the YA novel ends with a twist and cliffhanger and the love interest is revealed to be evil or presented as dubious with a big TBD stamped on his forehead. Instead, this novel ends without a cliffhanger at all. The setup for a further story is there -- one I am very interested in -- but you get the satisfaction of Deka's accomplishment and can revel in that for a moment before moving on to what's next. I don't see that as often in series, especially not YA ones, so that choice was a breath of fresh air.
