Sorry the previous update was at 28%

It bothered me that he referred to dead Latinos killed by heatstroke as cooked rotisserie chickens… this isn’t a time to use your literary prowess of metaphors.

I didn’t like that he presented a fictional account as real until the end

I LOVEEE how the author recognizes his privilege and how this book was written through a mostly male lens due to access/gender norms/etc. I’ve never heard an author acknowledge the lens through which they write.
