This is not a bad book at all besides it being relentlessly silly, it knows it is silly and leans into it. I had a wonderful time. And despite all the stillness it does have substance. There is an important theme about prejudice and racism. I also believe this book is feminist though it tries so hard to pretend that it's not that deep. It is. I will read the sequel.
