I really appreciated the realistic development of Sneha’s character- she messes up like a real person, brutally and ignorantly, but learns from it and is still far from perfect at the end. Also, the way the text shifted one of the characters’ pronouns from she to they halfway through was a very cool way to show how that language can change, and the protag may stumble once or twice, but she’s putting in the effort. I feel like I haven’t seen that pronoun shift captured in text before and I think it’d be helpful for people who haven’t had to do that for a friend/loved one/person in their own lives.
