7/2/2023 0 Comments Dress coded carrie firestoneLike, I don’t think that underage kids should be vaping… but the way it was being written about in the book just made me laugh. It was just so over the top that I feel like it cheapened the message the author was trying to get across. It was like a melodramatic after school special that lacked any nuance. HOWEVER, the subplot about the main character’s older brother being addicted to vaping was just so fucking ridiculous. Seeing the characters all come together to try and bring about change was great. It shows how young girls feel violated by the ways their bodies and clothes are being scrutinized, much of the time by adults. I thought that the main story about how girls in middle school are unfairly targeted for dress code infractions was really impactful.
