As a disabled person myself, I often hear people say things meant to be kind but that are actually incredibly ableist and hurtful. Rebekah does a great job of explaining her experience as a disabled person while also discussing common issues experienced by the disabled community as a whole.

I doubt I would’ve heard of it otherwise and was glad I did! It hooked me right away & kept my attention. At first I was shocked by the ending and disappointed to not get more answers as to where the crew went/what happened and just find out there’s a lawsuit. Then, upon reflection, I realized the point is probably for the reader to decide which of two scenarios occurred. In my opinion, one of two things happened; either the crew leaving was part of the show & on purpose- so they sued bc of how dangerous that was. OR (more likely) the creators saw the person get seriously hurt & pulled the crew out thinking the rest of the contestants would eventually die & nobody would know about the show. However, jokes on them that 3 made it out & then they sued. Curious what others think about the ending?...more
