an "eye roll" novel

The novel was predictable and corny. The characters lacked depth and seemed very fakey. I almost wanted to pull for the "bad guys".
I feel like the author is a little out of touch, with boomer racist energy.
The narrator didn't help anything. There was a lot of places I felt like she got the tone and inflection wrong. She used the same voice for most characters, but the few that were different were cringey or comical.

Very good book. I enjoyed the writing style, and the storyline kept me interested.
My critique is that I wish there was more. More descriptions. more conversations. more thoughts. I would have loved an afterword. I felt the ending was cut too short.
