don't get me wrong, i still love the characters so much. the aunties own my heart. they were both funny and sweet, i love how they decided to learn british english for meddy and were constantly saying stuff like "luv" or "innit".
as a daughter of immigrants, meddy was still relatable and i like how the book mentioned the theme of feeling slightly ashamed because of that and trying to blend as much as you can with a white culture.
of course, there were many scenes that made me laugh
ps: this is so unrelated but something that made me genuinely happy is how at some point the aunties mentioned how they used to help their muslim neighbors during eid al adha <3
