I did enjoy the book though. I was wholeheartedly rooting for Yami the entire time.
There were some moments that really took me out the book though.. The fortnite dancing?? I wish the editor had put their foot down on that one.

It took me a bit to get into the book, but once I did, I devoured it.
Since the book tries to do a lot, it obviously doesn't cut very deep on all topics - but I think it's a great base for doing further research or reading other books about related issues. Therefore, I don't necessarily view it as a weakness.
I loved Yami as a character and a narrator. I often found myself smiling or even laughing at her sarcastic remarks. I really wanted to give her a hug.
