I had a moment in the beginning where the adult/middle grade disconnect was clear. Why transform into a table right then!?? Oh, so so silly, but right in line with a child's thinking.
But I love how she learns along the way. The friendships she builds, the twists and turns...
Being a fox is complicated. She is always conscious of how even other supernaturals judge her. It's a good POV to show, the tension and compassion between her powers, her morals, and her friends POV.
I could do without the tiger that confirmed the bias against them, but it wouldn't have been the same without it. At least the dragons wound up WORKING so well. Maybe we'll see more of the different animals in sequels, please???
Rick Riordan Presents has been a FANTASTIC imprint so far. I've loved Dragon Pearl, Aru Shah, The Storm Runner, and Sal & Gabi Break the Universe. I can't wait to continue these series and read Race to the Sun, Paola Santigo and Tristan Strong soon too! I cannot think of ANY new imprint that has been putting out this amazing content and Riordan is the best example for white people supporting diverse reads out right now. (JK Rowling at the exact opposite end of that scale.)
