Though racism was the highlighted theme, O think the major theme was discrimination. Anyone can have a race, and anyone can have preferences towards races. But if one is subjected to discrimination because of the race, that is unacceptable.

Another prominent theme I noticed was the portrayal of human behaviour, specifically how they act in tenuous situations. The author did a wonderful job with those emotions and that theme.

Racism, war, feelings of isolation. These are the major themes that I believe the author has provided this book with. I did not find myself being a fan of this book.

Being normal is overrated, however, in this book the abnormal were harshly victimized and judged even though it wasn't their intention to be born so.

Latest Review: Imperfect Lives Perfect Grace by Dr. E.M. Johnson

Post by Emmanuella C Arumeze »

I don't know if I should call it segregation or racism. Karina was perfected because of what she was noed with. Confidence, determination, boldness, perseverance, vengeance are all significant themes of this book. This book discussed and touched several themes and virtues of life. This is really a great book

The central theme of the book is racism. There’s also perseverance, determination, discrimination, and kindness, amongst others, that added value to the readers.

A key theme in this book is doggedness. Despite all they experienced, they were still determined and didn't give up. Racism is another theme I noticed.

One of the themes found In this book is that of racism, which is very much prevalent in every of our immediate society. Being excluded from events happening around you because you're a particular type of person, especially being born with some kind of special abilities.

I also felt like the whole situation had a similar vibe to what people went through with the pandemic. People weren’t wanting to be around others, sticking to their own groups, and there is also a lot of judgement. The whole book also had an isolated feeling, which we all experienced through the lockdowns.
I agree with this comment and this is also similar to how we have allowed race and ethnicity to make us judgmental of someone who is not from our group of race or ethnic group.

The discrimination definitely lends to a theme of racism, and other forms of exclusion.
