This was a cute graphic novel, but I think it lacked depth and felt rushed. The side characters changed very quickly and it didn't feel like a developed arc. It's supposed to be a series, so I think it could have been spaced out better. The world building wasn't very strong, but that doesn't bother me. I was bothered by the cliched plot. It didn't feel very original and it felt a little young for the middle-grade category. I think younger children will enjoy and get a lot out of it! I still may read the next volumes because it does seem like the author has potential to grow.
