- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.0
Sinister and sadly familiar. A bit heavy-handed at points but a fantastic read. I wish Chiamaka's classism was explored further as well as her + Devon's friendship! Excited for what else Àbíké-Íyímíde comes out with.
Graphic: Gaslighting, Racism, and Toxic relationship
Moderate: Stalking, Fire/Fire injury, Death, Death of parent, Sexual violence, and Suicide attempt
Minor: Drug use
