Itâs a good book. Simple yet exhilarating but I do sense a lot of loose ends.. Like there are too many mysteries which would require an arc to be understandable to us. So I do understand when u say there is lot on cards. Ig u could rewrite this one by simplygying it a bit...You could also continue this one if you like but then u have to wrap up many parts in a simple fashion.
I think you should do what you want. This was good but I can see that some areas of the story were outside of your comfort zone. If you write another story you could consider writing a fanfic so you have less to think about and really just focus on the characters and relationships. This was really fun to read and for a first novel(?) this is quite good.
