4.5
This story covers the concept of personal growth, independant sacrifice for group benefit, strengthening community, and
generational healing.
The potential for more stories within this universe (as clipping./Daveed Diggs says at the end of the audiobook) is strong, and the only reason it's not a 4.5/5 is because I don't see myself going back to it multiple times. I really appreciate Rivers' writing style and will be seeking out other works of theirs.
