Everyone's Thinking It by Aleema Omotoni
3.0
This book will be incredibly meaningful to a lot of people. That's the beauty of art. It can mean different things to different people.
For me though, I'm sick of reading books and watching media with people in these super-wealthy environments. The rich boarding school kids and their clothes are not my jam. The story/ies would be so much more interesting to me in a different setting. I just find it so hard to care about people in these settings, even the ones there on scholarship, because they're still living in a world I have zero interest in and cannot relate to.
A lot of people who deserve representation get it in this book. BIPOC, queer (especially bi) and anxious folk will see themselves on the pages. That's really important. I'm glad this book exists. It's just not for me.
