I like this book a lot. The way gender diversity is portrayed with such nonchalance was amazing. The story did go very quick and skipped some bits or went through them really fast that I would have like to have seen explored further. I really loved the idea of the sea as this godly entity with immense power instead of just a natural force. The personification of such things is always super beautiful and interesting to me. 

Some of the descriptions of events were a bit bland for my taste but I still thoroughly enjoyed the story as well as the many diverse and complex characters. Definitely worth a read.
