This book has great asexual representation! The mystery is not too hard to solve, but it's explored in a fun and engaging way. I enjoy the different moral alignments of the characters and how they affiliate and differ depending on the worlds that drew them in. Jack is a particular favorite.

Eating disorder tagged because there is a major focus on the main character's eating habits and her loss of a need to eat in a way that would sustain people due to the changes to her body as imposed by the rules in the Halls of the Dead.
