Unrelated to my impression of the book overall, I got into a car accident while listening to this book, right at the part where Simon is also involved in a vehicle accident. I was hit by an oncoming driver who suddenly jumped a low median. Thankfully, I was ok!
Moderate: Confinement and Racism

I don't believe the art and the artist can be separated much in this case--not when she has refused to listen to those she's harmed, or acknowledged said harm at all. I don't think Rowell or her work should be supported, at least for now. I won't be buying any of her future books unless she fully reckons with the harm her racism has caused.
