I think the story has potential, but the change of too many POVs and storylines has made it hard to follow; also I don’t believe all knots tie in the end. Ending itself seemed rushed… idk. But the idea behind it I think it’s good, a bit like a “Girl woman other” moment but with both men and women and Latinx/BIPOC experience.
