This didn't start off on the best foot. There were moments of ableism, fat shaming, and casual racism in that covert "joking" kind of way. BUT it seemed like more often than not, the characters had moments of clarity about their flaws, learned from them. Denslow has a knack for diving deep into people's emotions/thought processes. The characters aren't always relatable, which I think made them all the more realistic and complex.
