Nature, abandonment and classism are the most significant themes of the book.Spoiler
The side character Jumpy is abused with racial slurs. The main character Kya experiences a lot of prejudice, predominantly classism. The main character is a victim of sexual assault from a toxic relationship. The home life of the central character Kya has domestic violence, child abuse and emotional abuse. A minor character has a breakdown and develops dementia.itsdeenlee's review against another edition
