This is a good read. Premise is interesting, and it was written well, just it didn't grab me the way I thought it would.

It takes a while for the plot to develop, and the ending felt rushed. The ending was supposed to be tragic, but it feels like there is supposed to be more to the story.

I didn't like the time skip at the end because I wanted to see more charter development from Lily during her time at Judy's house. Also, with the flashbacks in the story, they don't feel like they are supposed to be there, it just feels like filler. Plus, I would've loved to see more development with the Communism plot in the story. Especially when the club gets raided. It was a nice story, I wish more of the story would be explored.
