kind of unrealistic. also i feel like your points about class supremacy don't make any sense without race as a context...and these characters were extremely racially ambiguous. idk i think i just expected more. it felt really on the nose

I don't love spy books, but my propensity for randomly selecting books without reading the description occasionally lands me in books that aren't my cup of tea but are still good. This is one such book. I loved reading Dani's drive to survive, the world building was excellent, and I enjoy the enemies to lovers trope.
