I do also think that Teo’s character arc, while a great one, really stretched out at the end in a bad way. I found Cielo less mature at the end than I did at the start. Though I did find the balance between the two of them shifted with Cielo rapidly holding less authority/importance as Teo’s role rose in prominence. I liked the addition of Cielo who brought a bit of romantic tension and mentorship. I found Teo to be an interesting character whose exploration into her gender identity and her role in life (and within her family) was interesting to follow. This was by no means an overly complicated or mind-blowing read, but it delivered well on what it promised. When you say fantasy + Mafia Italy inspired world, I’m there. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this enjoyable and easy-to-follow story with the added bonus of two gender fluid characters.
