[New York Transplant Voice]

No other city is like this city this is the most incredible city. Where else but New York can you find (insert thing you can find it LITERALLY ANY OTHER MAJOR METROPOLITAN AREA)?

Honestly the way they're all just calling Padmini Queens despite her saying not to is really starting to bother me

All I am asking for is even a little subtlety

Aislyn would work so much better as a character if she was 15-16 instead of IN HER FUCKING THIRTIES

HOW ARE YOU GOING TO HAVE AN ELDRITCH HORROR COME IN WITH THREE MEN TO FIGHT AND WOMAN AND THEN JUST NOT DO THAT

DOES ANYTHING EVEN HAPPEN IN THIS BOOK

"New York is too much for one person to embody"

Oh and São Paulo isn't? Hong Kong isn't? Paris isn't?

Fuck off.

Can a single character talk about their marginalizations like a normal human being??

Or is the author afraid I'm going to forget that Bronca is Lenape?

The social commentary has all the subtleness of a bomb

"City morphology defies predictability, of course, but there are epigenetics manifestations, metabolic fluxes that should follow through in a perceptible way."

Absolutely meaningless sentence that just annoys me

Unless youre going to actually do worldbuilding for city avatar biochemistry maybe just dont idk

It did NOT need to be this heavy handed.

Have a little faith in your readers man
