- Attraction and guardedness: Aphra is drawn to Seth, a teenage guest who is guarded and does not discuss his past. The relationship is part of the story, but its development and treatment cannot be determined.
- Isolation and friendship: Aphra lives at a remote resort where its exclusivity gives her few opportunities to make friends. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
