I still love this series and its characters so much, but this is my least liked of the books. I did like how ruthless the fish mafia characters were.
when fishy dude devolved Malone. i was like COLD!

 I thought the story was well-written. But be prepared: the levels of gaslighting the main character Molly went through were frustrating. You can imagine how isolating it would feel to be a child whose parents actively ignore their feelings. That was scarier than the ghosts or the little demon child Heather. That parental neglection will be relatable to some children though.

 The characters here are really charming. When Kikuzato’s mom finds out about his racing and the shift guy handing prosthetics out like candy, is the highlight of this volume. You feel the parental concern and pride she has in her baby boy.

The track team is also fun and shaping up to be good friends to Kikuzato. I’ll read another volume for sure.

Love the focus on the different types of prosthetics and the Paralympics. It's woven into the story well, so it doesn't feel like a boring info dump. At its core, it's a Sports manga, which doesn't usually keep my interest. But not bad.
informative lighthearted reflective medium-paced

 Really good! But I feel like the educational bits/facts should’ve been at the back of the book so as not to disrupt the flow of the story.

I really enjoyed how imaginative and clever the lead girl was. Pretty fun despite some things not being explained well.
