I loved how each character had their own distinct voice. With the type of grammar and spelling used, each character was distinct. It took me a while to learn all of them but I did enjoy the array of characters. We see disabled rep we don't normally see such as disabled characters in romantic relationships and/or having sex.
This book had a strong theme of discussing independence or autonomy for disabled people as well as whether individual actions or the system should be blamed for harm. I really appreciated the discourse and it gave me something to reflect on. Individuals can have responsibility but no lasting change will be made without fighting the system.
