TOO DAMN GOOD BRAH LIKE ACTUALLY THIS IS CRIMINALLY GOOD. everything a novel should be from story telling to narration and dialogue i was absolutely swept away by this writing. such a gorgeous story with gorgeous characters and an important core moment in history i knew ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT. so glad i was able to read this and learn a new perspective. i think this should be mandatory middle school reading in america tbh.
