Even though the main character is a high school senior, she comes across as much younger but I liked how she challenged other characters' harmful behavior, e.g., xenophobic comments.
What I don't understand is why the US version is set in Connecticut when you can still tell by the author's word choices that she is British. Why not leave it in the UK?
