This was written like a bad fan fiction and girl I love fanfic! The book explored so many topics in a short time that when it got to the deep stuff, it felt insensitive. The plot had so much going on it got confusing. Plus I felt like the bigotry from the side characters and even the MC’s was never properly dealt with? Nor with the care I expected. But I still enjoyed some of the poetic parts and will definitely be playing Sonic Flight with my gf!
