The world building was so fun! There were so many just very weird and silly things that I just loved (I'm a big fan of the unionizing dolphins)

Charlie's character arc! I felt like he grew a lot over the story even though in the end he decides villainy is not for him, because that's growth too!

CATS! Hera ❤❤❤❤❤ give her all the scritches and seafood platters she deserves

Felt like the pacing of the plot was a bit off. The first half went a little slow for me and by around 60% through I was really worried that things weren't going to resolve nicely, but overall I think that they did.

Some small plot things i felt were not fully fleshed out, I didn't really understand the bit about the mother at the end.
