i feel like the story could have been explored in a little more depth, some parts felt really unfinished or rushed, but overall, i liked this book a lot.
the relationships were never just "one thing", and i feel like the book authentically conveys the grayness of connection and culture, while also communicating clearly that some things are to be seen in black and white, because sometimes it's just that simple.
