Interesting concept and easy to read but I could just not find any of the characters likeable. The twist was unexpected but also seemed not quite believable. The focus on the 15 year old's sex life is also uncomfortable and felt unnecessary to the plot.
There was one part towards the end which makes you question your unconscious bias. It's a shame this wasn't explored a bit more.
