I stayed up all night to read this book. I cried and laughed and saw a lot of relatable moments for Black girls at the end of their academic career and lost. I appreciated that none of the racial family or friendship dynamics were glossed over. The organic way everyone's racial makeup is woven into the story from Porter being biracial to Yuki being Japanese American to Raj and Meera being Indian. No one is allowed to default to being white, ever. I loved the visuals and way the language was able to appeal to all five senses. I loved the frank discussions of mental health and therapy, including interviewing therapists to find the right fit. It's just an all around good book, and I can't wait to share it with readers.
