I hated this book. The dialogue felt very fake, there were way too many characters, and the book is 200 pages longer than it needed to be. Great premise, terrible execution. Also the Black character felt like a token - the author included her to be "diverse" without actually making her feel like an authentic Black character. The "diversity" in this book felt very performative.
