I liked it but I didn’t love it. Lots to think about re: one’s internal flaws and the way we always put ourselves first when really everyone has their own little world and we should probably think more about family/community/others.

Devastating as it’s clearly based on true and lived experiences however I found it hard to connect with any of the characters because it moved the next too fast. There was also no real “storyline” which I suppose is the point but it sort of just felt like I was reading character profiles..
