I had to stop midway through this book to look at the author bio to figure out if this novel was sincere or trolling. It's stuffed to the brim with social justice buzzwords and self-centered introspection that never resolves, in such an overt manner that I started to wonder if it was exaggerated for malicious purposes, even though I didn't have objections to the views presented. The protagonist's perennial struggle with feeling like they are simultaneously advocating on social justice and not doing enough felt like the majority of the narrative. I want to support this author as they were good at capturing emotion - I just wanted more plot and less spoon-feeding.
