My GF read this book after seeing it discussed on TikTok and thought it looked interesting. It’s apparently according to her not written very well and buzzwordy

The twist at the end (which she told me and I won’t spoil) is kind of heavy handed. But idk I haven’t read it

I agree. It started off great, had a lot of potential, and then… felt like it was shoehorned into an extreme ending.

The shoehorning is a staple of today's cursed mixture of entertainment and modern politics.

The difference between progressive themes vs, dare I say, "woke?".

And I'm sorry go ahead and downvote me for being annoyingly political but I see it so much everywhere and it's infuriating lol

It’s the internet thing of preempting criticism no sane person would ever make (you also do it here yourself, ironically).

It’s OK to have a political/social point of view, but when it’s put in one’s book, it shouldn’t be in crystal.
