I always like Wonder Women stories that bring out Diana's sense of justice and desire to better the world of mortals, and this one really leans into this. I love that Diana's push to leave the island is out of pure altruism, and that this decision is one that ties her into the world of refugees and social justice. 

I didn't 100% love the "attempted child trafficking plot," especially since most of the injustices Diana wants to fight are so grounded in the day to day suffering of the oppressed, but other than that, it's a good read.
