hopeful reflective medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated

I really loved the cultural and community aspects of this book! I thought the micro aggressions in here were very realistic and eye opening about the ways that even within a community, people can be “othered”. Bits of the story were spoon fed and it definitely all came together much clearer in the end. Overall, an enjoyable read with great representation.
