Une lecture sympathique. L'histoire ne réinvente pas l'eau chaude mais c'est agréable de voir des POC queer mis en avant simplement.
La rapidité des évènements embarrassent en revanche les relations entre les personnages, qu'on a peine à croire lorsqu'ils se connaissent depuis dix jours. La fin est tout aussi abrupte, annonçant un tome 2 qui n'est amené par rien avant la dernière page.
