Status Updates From The Girl who Fell to Earth

Also really like the memory disc being used as plot device fir both furthering her understanding and Megans

I do like the main characters arc. It still feels a little like the author is trying to fit too many topics in and it's a bit heavy handed for the age group and page count. There's some tense scenes but then the 2D villain explains himself and disappeared. Then there's the boy getting badly hurt, kinda violent for 9-12, and supposedly both being let out and serious surgery?at least its actually serious then.

However I do find it strange that the author chose to make her main characters people of colour because of resistance to radiation? And then to make them the ones othering humans? It could be an oversight but its an odd choice. Plus the references to needing to download music are cringe- couldn't they stream it?
