this was good and i really liked the prose in it. i was really invested in the plot in the first half, but it dragged soo much and for so long for the entire rest of the book i stopped really caring about what was happening, and i think that is partly because of the writing style, which makes it inherently slower. also out of the entire huge cast, i only like june, cole, march, and artie.
