Honestly, I was most impressed with the secondary cast of characters. Lotta and Rico especially won me over with their compassion for helping those who need it. It's so clear from working with Kalayla and Mr. O'Rourke that Rico genuinely wants to help these kids learn and grow in whatever way suits them best, not however is easiest for him.

My favorite character was Kalayla. I loved her character development. I also loved how impactful she was to those around her, and how the author presented this as Kalayla just being Kalayla is enough for the people around her to be more accepting and grow.anoushka_thakur wrote: ↑01 Sep 2020, 00:29 Who was your favorite character and why?
If you ask me my favorite character was Kayala. I loved her character in this book. I was touched by her story.

I agree.
Kalayla .
She went through so much hardship,- which probably helped her be mature for her age.
More importantly though, she didn't allow the hardship she went through to bring her down, or kill her light.
That is endearing and applaudable.

I think Rico was my favorite! He was so nice, and funny, too. He felt really “real” to me, despite being a minor character. I was hoping he and Maureen would get together!Kaylee123 wrote: ↑25 Sep 2020, 10:14 For the main characters, my favorite character was Kalayla. I found her honesty refreshing, even though she was a little inappropriate at times. I also loved how much she loved her mother, even if she had trouble showing it. I also found her to be super funny at times, like when she was worried Lena was going to die when she decided to start wearing color again.
For minor characters, I really enjoyed Rico. I liked that he gave Maureen space and took the time to try to get to know Kalayla, even though she attacked him the first time they met. Most men would run from a situation like that. I admired him.
