- this topic being discussed in a YA setting
- Lex's character growth
- the strong support system around her
- the discussion of being too “broken” and the exploration of Lex's trauma & how it presents itself (feeling numb, dissociating, etc.)

dislikes
- I found the pacing to be a bit weird, going by super quickly in some parts & dragging in others.
- the use of AAVE & the n-word; I do understand the author's explanation for this but... meh
- Lex being assaulted yet again in school was not given the attention it needed. I can only imagine how traumatic that would be and it really wasn't treated as such.
