I love love this book. Honestly I’m trying to put my thoughts together cause there is so much to unpack in this book.
As a non-native - in a way (I know it’s fiction) I learned a lot and feel like I was given some insight on their culture and some of the challenges they encounter.
There is so much to say but seriously just read it and check trigger warnings.

PS: I only gave it 4.75 cause I did not enjoy the relationship between the main character and her mom.
