It's a pretty big deal as far as pop culture goes, and a nice little story but from a literary standpoint, they're kinda shit. My major complaint is that she's horrible at worldbuilding.
Imagine you've just read Lord of the Rings. You loved it, and you thought all those little references to stuff like Gondolin and Numenor, and other places you don't ever see did a great job of casting the illusion of a world bigger than it was.
The Sillma-what now? Never heard of it.
So what you're going to do is the same thing you read in those books, drop bits of lore about other countries without bothering to try to make sense of it, not like it matters and there's not thousands of autists that will pour over every detail.
And then you finish your book and some kids really liked it, so you get a book deal and then it all snowballs from there, so 15 years later you're still dropping bits of lore that adds up to horrible implications and forcing your politics on paople because they don't have as much money as you so they don't really matter.

Luna was best girl, by the way.
