I don't think this completely worked for me. I found the plot to be quite disjointed, the characters to be hard to care about, and the ending to be too open. This book tried to cover a lot of important topics but I don't think it properly served any of them. I have heard this compared to The Death of Vivek Oji (which I loved), and sadly it let me down
