Because of all the conflicting viewpoints of the characters, I’m not quite sure what lessons this series is trying to teach young readers. It feels a bit like Gabilan is being added as a distraction from the main plot; his part seems unnecessary. I also continue to be confused by the complexity of the story.
Graphic: Violence and Blood
Moderate: Grief, Suicide attempt, and Car accident
Minor: Suicidal thoughts and Death of parent
