I've been reading her books out of publishing order and did not realize this was her second published book. It's interesting to see themes come up that she goes on to explore more in later works
One of the reasons I always enjoy the author's writing is how she centers Canada and Canadian characters and locations in her writing.

I also thought it was very interesting to see themes developing in this book that the author later explores more (i.e. the shipping industry and the glass hotel!!).
