Code Red

hm on one hand I'm like “MG and YA books are getting too long, we need more short ones” but then I'm like “this one is maybe too short for all the concepts it wants to pack in here!” I loved all the individual pieces of it and I think there's a lot of great info in here but then I think some of the character/relationship development suffered a bit for it. I've seen it listed as a modern companion to [b:Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret 37732 Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret Judy Blume https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388356524l/37732.SY75.jpg 4121] (I've listed it that way myself before I read it) and I think...that's maybe not quite right, despite the obvious connection of periods. You're SO in Margaret's head and she's such a full character in a way that Eden isn't quite to me. But still: a lot to like here.
