4.0

i wanted to read this book after remembering how much i liked but didn't really understand the movie when i was 14. initially i thought the narrative was sorta reductive, but it got so much better. according to the book jacket, the book is dash's chance to explore her film characters more deeply, and that exploration is really fecund. this book is pretty beautiful.
