Brief Rating explanation: The book overall showed multiple views on life with multiple different stories while keeping me entertained but the grammar a points would lose me because the sentences semi-complex and very vague which turned to hit or misses for me throughout the book.Overall it’s a book that in a childish way showed me many things that apply to the real world and how are society in some ways acts or looks.
