I really liked this story! At first, the premise seemed a bit weird and I thought that Twitter was a weird social media for it to be centered on, but it honestly ended up working out great.
The way that things escalated and the portrayal of how trends on Twitter can get so out of control so quickly was done so well. I think if it was written even a bit more recently, there would have been some comment on TikTok as well (as for jumping on both hate and love trains so quickly).
Anyway, I really liked this story and I enjoyed the simplicity of it. It was heartfelt, funny, and an enjoyable read. My favorite character was probably Pepper, but Grandma Belly was growing on me (though I didn’t like how they waited so long to reveal her true name).
