Keira is one of a handful of black students at her school, by night she is the developer of a MMORP for black players, SLAY.
When one of the gamers is killed IRL, SLAY is hurled into the spotlight around the world. Kiera must fight to save her game in both worlds.
Race is also a major part of this book, and although I am unqualified to comment on it, I appreciate how the author has included it as commentary and teaching/learning for readers.
Graphic: Toxic relationship
Moderate: Gaslighting and Racism
Minor: Death, Police brutality, Cultural appropriation, and Racial slurs
