Basically, I wasn’t keen on the snobby people being racist. I felt it could’ve been left out. You can be snobby and not racist. It just seemed really weird, idk? Maybe out of place? I didn’t feel it was necessary, anyway. I was not comfortable with those parts, the way poc were spoken about just didn’t sit right with me. Maybe that’s my own interpretation.
However, a tense and surprising read. I did enjoy it. It was very YA, but good to be back in a boarding school setting. Not been there since reading a Jacqueline Wilson book. Very eerie at times. Held your interest. My favourite parts were film references. They made me chuckle.
