I didn't love it, and I didn't dislike it. I will read more in this series to see if it grows on me.
Overall, the art is gorgeous and the idea is amazing. I'm loving the locals, the obsession with tea. There is even a positive gender reversal here that I'm impressed with. Still, the story did NOTHING for me and twice there is a weird daydream sequence that completely ripped me out of the story and confused me.
I trust First Second completely, so I will look forward to more volumes of this and hope the story gets a bit more....compelling.
