Romina Garber has a talent for weaving the feeling of being "othered" into a fantasy narrative that can really be felt from a diverse background of people. I loved the introductions to each character, and how Manu explored the world to bring us along for the ride. The way the plot moves is written for probably an 8th or 9th grade reading level, which I LOVE how accessible that makes these really intricate topics that are being explored throughout the story.
