Dear Alexa et Meldies,
Y'all already know this but I feel like chapter 3 should be titled "What Racism Looks Like". Like, I learned a lot of slang terms and really got an extreme look at what some of those white supremacists thought of the whole situation. For instance the part about how the politician thought that since whites "made the country", or whatever, they automatically have more rights. That was just a chapter I didn't have a lot of fun reading but I like how confused Iris with all of it because it shows just how unnatural and complicated racism is.

Dear Meldies and Alexa,
I'm starting to get a little annoyed with the style of writing, specifically because It's hard for me to pick up on the transitions when it goes from one story/setting to the next. But other than that I'm totally a fan of the book and I really like Persia as a character, she seems swell.
