Yeah this protagonist is super annoying. But that’s the whole point. This is such a deep novel on so many different levels and it brings up so many different excellent points. I’m really glad it’s getting the recognition it deserves because these are conversation topics that we really need to cover. Highly recommend
Moderate: Bullying, Death, Emotional abuse, Racial slurs, Racism, Xenophobia, Grief, Medical trauma, Gaslighting, Toxic friendship, Abandonment, and Injury/Injury detail
