I hate contemporary references in books with a passion but this one isn't that bad.
My only issue is Jayne is constantly said to be an emotional character but reading through I can barely get a sense of her thought process. She does things / takes actions at random,
Spoiler
for example: kicking out jeremy, going with june to the doctor,I guess my other issue is misused AAVE. But also... Asian American? From Texas? New York transplants? Color me shocked.
