Super enjoyed this book! A couple of things stood out to me as odd and not necessarily in a good way, but they are all spoilers.

Spoiler

The main thing, though, is the "Imagine you are a..." interludes that explain weird magical things about the world. They are cool weird ideas, but they don't really fit the character of the rest of the book. Also, what's with the Bai bird and the dying vengeful Mindoren? They come out of nowhere and die out of nowhere and seem to not exist for any particular reason. Lastly, I want to say that this plot really smacks of Moana...not necessarily in a bad way, but it still doesn't seem very original.

EDIT: I just spoke with a friend about this book and now feel much less kindly about its major plot holes. I'm bumping it down a star for those.
