not what i was expecting
3 stars
Content warning Spoilers?
coming from the monk and the robot series, i guess i looked forward to this book because i built an unrealistic image of it i suppose. :P
i was expecting a revolution and the building of a new society or community or whatnot. insted, we get this kind of moral message regarding how we should fight despite the fact we might not win?
overall, the writing and the story are amazing, i'm just not sure what was the point of all of this.
the main character wants to be a critique of whiteness, but it also still the main voice we always hear throughout the whole book. and she is super annoying at times and i wonder why we have to stick with her for so long.
anyway, probably, i just had expectations too high and i braced myself for something that was real in my mind only. sad but true.
