I loved the intersection between race and magical species in this contemporary urban fantasy. I also enjoyed how the two POV characters were equally important to the story. There was an excellent integration of recent politics into the story, specifically police brutality and BLM.
Moderate: Police brutality and Racism
Minor: Gore, Death of parent, and Bullying
