I read this as 9. A book about a problem facing society today in the Advanced prompts for the 2018 PopSugar Reading Challenge, though it's hardly a problem of just today.

There are many things to love and hate (you, like love-hate) in this book, but my favorite thing was the way Star was mentored by the people in her life. It's such a powerful thing to have good mentors and Star understands that she's blessed in that way and uses her gifts. What a reminder that we have to foster these young people, and never forget our privilege.

This book is littered with profanity, including f-bombs, on every page. I couldn't read more than the first chapter. Surely the author could've represented the heroine without having to give her a potty mouth. This book should not be marketed by Scholastic to school students.
