if the pretty person is nice and the disabled person is evil, is it still a subversion because the main character comes at it from an anti-oppressive model initially? or was it not an anti-oppressive model & rather some girlo competition <> charity model of disability LOL

the class politics of this book are wild. didn't expect that on rereading it.

big thoughts about to what extent minoritized characters are multi-dimensional here. 🤔

Felt kinda flat but it was entertaining. The protag was kinda getting on my nerves at the end

I really enjoyed the world, dragons, and setting most. The characters and plot were good, but I feel like some aspects of them could have been better.

This is my favorite childhood book! I loved the cool dragons and exciting plot as a little kid, and since then I've gone back and reread it and come to appreciate it in a different way- the themes of forced change, self discovery, and forming new friendships in overwhelming new places speak to me more now. I love this book :)
