I have very much enjoyed Tamora Pierce's books for the amazing worldbuilding and how progressive they are (i.e. queer characters, birth control etc.) but I really struggled towards the end of this series with Diane and Numair's developing relationship. To have a 30-year-old in a relationship with a 16-year-old is horrifying with the added power dynamic of the mentor/teacher relationship it is an abuse of power.
