This was a book that I was really excited about because of representation across the board.
However what it lacked for me was just a little more depth. One of the major plot points in this doesn't feel very organic. I understand why the story may have been left open ended like it was so you are never sure if she did the “right” thing.
It just felt like it really missed the mark for me.
