I liked this but I'm not sure I loved it? I like the idea of related short novellas of young, artistic, Black girls, I like the setting, I like Lux as a person, I like where the story seems to be going. But I think the length is doing the book a disservice. Maybe I would have liked it better if all the books were one with each part a different girls POV, or maybe I just wanted there to be a stronger resolution in the story in general because it feels like it wrapped up pretty quickly and with some ends that didn't tie off as well. I know that some of those loose ends are because the story is ongoing but it still felt very jarringly sudden when the end did come. I will probably read more in this series to get a better idea of how I like it.
