This was awful. First off this whole time I thought this character was a boy but turns out she’s a girl and I was shocked. Anyways this is full of racism for no reason. The main character kept saying I don’t agree with my father’s opinions but then was literally saying racist things and hate-crimeing. News flash actions speak louder than words. Just because you say you don’t agree and then are actively doing the things you are “against” doesn’t make it ok. The author tries to redeem the main character but a little to late. Literally after she sacrifices a poc character she’s like I’m going to change and then she dies 🙄.
