The writing was good and this was a good concept. However, there was problems with pacing. I found myself very bored because literally nothing really happens for 400 pages and this book is 499 pages. All of the characters are queer, but in the last few pages there is a kiss and that’s it. No romance really and I don’t see the point of pointing out they are queer. I like the diversity though, but I would have liked romance and them to explore their sexuality. I don’t think I’ll be reading the sequel.
