Showcases pure joy in the face of extreme hate 💜

After the Hearing scene, I got nervous and expected to struggle through sections because the story’s villains are the exact type of people that make me the angriest. However, I should not have worried. For the entire rest of the book, joy firmly outweighs the hate and anger from the villains.
