It was very definitely a YA book and in retrospect I guess the clunky bits could be explained away as a "debut" book. I didn't realise that until I finished reading it and had the author saying so. So, kudos to you author! Will hopefully get refined and smoother as they become more practiced writing and figure out their style.

With Po, I think I went the opposite, I preferred when he was absent from the story except as thoughts and feelings and found it a bit awkward when he was present. But I suspect that's more because I liked Katsa but was indifferent to Po. So Po being present was less Katsa and Bitterblue and angsty-survival IMO.

I do really like how they met. It was cliche and overdramatic. But I still really liked how Katsa and Po met.

Agree with Leck, I feel like he kind of glossed over a bit after such a build up. Especially since I now realise towards the start of the book his rumours were alluded to - but in an appropriate fashion from Katsa's point of view and it really isn't until Po comes in that the way he is regarded in the store changes. And I like that, so the abrupt ending was...well, abrupt.

I could probably read a whole book on Katsa, Bitterblue and the sailors. Maybe one day the captain could get her own book, sounds like she has many stories!

I can go with Raffin and Bann being secretly gay. I confess, I didn't give them much mind as characters except as her friends.
