The first like 30% felt a bit rushed, especially since some conflicts seemed to be solved a bit too easily and I felt like I missed some developments. I had the same feeling at the end but it wasn't that bad and overall I enjoyed the representation of gender fluidity, the depiction of feminism, choice, family, and freedom and what these mean in the end. I really liked that the message is less "you can be succesful as a woman too" and more "screw gender roles, they shouldn't decide whether someone is succsesful". Teo is certainly not a perfect protagonist but that makes Teo even more interesting. I sometimes just wishes that Teo had gotten more room for development - same for some side characters. The story felt much more plot-centered which was okay, it was fun to read, at least if you like some politics (and romance, because there is a lot of). It also felt like a satisfying ending for the series that is never really predictable and therefore quite captivating.
