I really loved the world building of this novel and how entrenched in NOLA it is.
The pacing was incredibly hard for me though (felt slow paced, given all the action that was happening), and I found myself wishing for some way to truncate.
The songs-as-characters magic and the ways in which tagging and other art forms were powerful magic represent a unique magic system I absolutely loved, though.
