DC heavy book with references that made me quite nostalgic. Thought-provoking and made one consider questions on the meaningful/less-ness of cancel culture, the ultimate harsh reality of people just trying to make it in the world and ripping others to shreds just to achieve it. No saints here, that’s for sure
