CW: racism, ableism, misogyny, use of the r-slur (multiple times), islamophobic slurs and comments, attempted rape, assault, and murder.

The only reason I didn't dnf this was because of Maribel. I couldn't care less of everything else. There was so many ableist ideology and slurs. It lowkey triggered me a bit because I saw myself a bit in Maribel. There was also this really ugly comment when a character said that someone looked like a terrorist because they had a scarf over their head........ yeah. I really wanted to like this book because I love reading books about latine experiences. But this just wasn't for me.

ALSO THE PLOT HOLES AND RANDOM CHAPTERS FOLLOWING RANDOM CHARACTERS WAS SO ANNOYING!!
