A Deadly Education

I had a great time reading this! It's deeply unserious in the way that Percy Jackson books are also deeply unserious, you know what I mean? Like, the exasperation from the MC makes you want to take everything as a joke but it isn't actually. I really enjoyed it!
I know there was some controversy on this back when it came out about representation, and its probably safe to say that it didn't nail it head-on - mainly because it isn't very representative at all. But I enjoyed it nonetheless, and I don't think the book does any active harm either.
