I genuinely don't know how this isn't rated way higher. I can't wait to read more of her work. The plot was incredible, and I enjoyed the writing style and the commentary immensely. Everything about this was so interesting. I did want more from the ending and I do think some of the content could've have definitely used a sensitivity reader.
I think the critiques of the main character in some reviews lack an understanding of what a character has to be.. like characters do not have to be perfect ppl that always do what you want? They can exist to serve a stories purpose, further add to the commentary and idk have flaws like ppl do
