Mostly I really liked the book and the FMC. The pace was a bit slow to my taste in the middle of the book and it felt like there wasn’t really anything interesting going on but I liked both the beginning and end. End had some nice twist, some I was able to guess beforehand but some were a surprise.
Definitely going to read the rest of the series.

The world building is interesting and mysterious enough that I will probably eventually continue, if only because it's an easy read with low personal stakes since I didn't really care about the characters. The banter was amusing and the plotting was fun. There were some pacing issues, but it was kind of necessary plot-wise so I'm not bothered by it.
