First, key me say this book was good. The writting was excellent, the spice levels great, the conflicts believable. The she of the female protagonist was fine. I mean I've never met an tighten year old that mature but for the story it was fine. The only downside for me was the ending. I wanted a completely different ending. Even though the ending made sense and was more true to real life I would have preferred more fantasy. But that's just me and it didn't detract from the quality of the book. It's a bit of a wild ride but still very enjoyable. Make sure you take the trigger warnings serious, though, because there's A LOT of real life triggering subject matter.
