A great concept and a really fun and interesting ensemble cast, but I can't help but feel like it cut off and ended sort of abruptly.
I do think it's pretty remarkable that Rio was able to give five characters a pretty satisfactory arc within 100 pages. I did want more time with each of them, but I think that's more a symptom of the novella format than my issues with the plot pacing.
