I really really hated this book. The writing style was simple, the monique part was unnecessary and all the characters felt flat to me. But that was all fine by me. The thing i hated the most was the representation of PoC. Evelyn was essentially a white woman so why the need to make her latina if it did not impact the story whatsoever. Only for her to remember at the end that she speaks spanish. I thought that was so stupid. If she's white passing fine she wouldn't experience rasism herself but she should have been more aware of it. Or at least struggle with her identity internally or something. I would have liked it more if she would have just been a white woman. She's compared to mostly white actresses aswell like judy garland and elizabeth taylor.
