I had the same complaint I’ve seen others have- the age of the characters did not work for me. So many of the characters had intense backstories and pasts with other characters that seems should go back years or decades but oop no that was like 6 months ago because everyone is 16 17 18 years old. I feel the biggest offender is Kaz (I love him tho). I understand he had an extremely traumatic series of events happen to him. But just imagining harden criminal Kaz age 10 becoming a gang leader really took me out of the story.
Looking past the ages of the characters I really enjoyed going on the job with the dregs gang and am invested in what comes next.
