Solid read! I enjoyed it, but it didn’t grip me as much as TLOK’s continuation did and probably because I’m not the middle grade audience. The main themes here though were still very relevant even today, and I enjoyed seeing how things played out. Will continue to the next installments!

I love everything ATLA and it was great revisiting the characters in a new setting. The story feels very authentic to everything that's come out of the universe before and so do the characters.
I only feel like the story maybe moved a bit too quickly, but maybe I just wish there were more to read 🙃. Can't wait to start The Search!
