This was a delightful read, I'm looking forward to reading the sequels. :)
I love Joyce - she's the sweetest, and has now become my new role model.
Most things got tied up nicely - no plot holes as far as I can tell, and there was not one moment in which I felt bored or had to keep myself from skipping pages.
There was an attempt at a small misdirect which wasn't impactful enough, and so didn't work (and in my opinion was unnecessary either way, even if it would have). The other misdirect/ plot twist however, was a nice surprise.
Definitely recommend this one.
