MC is not some chosen one or freek genius, he's lucky and intelligent, not a fool. Romance is a little heavy but not the main theme. Survival, human duality, conflict, and the very nature of the world itself are the book's focus. Every character has depth, and nothing is truly meaningless. Pay attention and see if you can pick up that deeply hidden foreshadowing.
