it was so nice reading about this revolutionary movement at a time when my own movements and groups tend to disappoint me. it's a movement that does a lot of things right. also it's great to witness the affection and understanding with which the characters treat each other. props for including disabled people and the super super nice quotes by mariame kaba and gwendolyn brooks. there was not a lot going on plot-wise or suspension-wise but the lovely characters made up for it.

very promising start, anticlimactic ending
3 stars
I was so intrigued in the beginning that I felt a little let down by how the story played out in the end. Still, I loved so many things about this! The premise is very out-of-the-box. The relationships are so loving. I liked both of Pet and Jam's characters. Nevertheless, the whole thing could have been thought out more thoroughly.
