While I may never personally feel these struggles, walking through these characters fights for justice and pain caused by rigged systems and a society working to keep them oppressed.
The constant questions of who Aces was only for the reveal to be absolutely horrifying and yet so real was exactly what kept this book moving so fast.
This book was fantastic and I can't recommend it enough!

I loved that the author intentionally kept the setting location vague so it could exist in a wide variety of locations, not one specific city. I don't want to say much more and risk spoiling it, because the surprise twists are key to the plot, but it's worth it to get through the beginning to the more exciting ending.
Moderate: Racism
Minor: Death of parent
