OH MAN, so I actually messaged the author about this, as I am a Reformed Jew, and confronted them on the fact they essentially make a character Jewish for cheap plot drama (using a genocide rooted in real history of a social and historically persecuted minority!! the FEELS, right), as well as the tattoo, the "Mystic" bullshit, etc, and BOY did they come up with a response. An ENTIRE TUMBLR POST explaining how they have "Jewish informants" (okay) and are an anthropology student and looked at many wikipedia pages because they know lots of words related to Jewishness!!

Meanwhile, I got told privately by the author that characterizing Levi as Ashkenazi because of his... grey eyes WASN'T racist (again, o-k-a-y), and that I, a JEWISH PERSON, was clearly wrong here and they were right because they Did Their Research. I felt like trash afterwards, it was great. So polite and understanding.

(The tattoo thing DISGUSTS me. Not to mention how in one chapter Hebrew script was described as "blocky yet beautiful" or something *SHUDDERS*)

tl;dr wow I had no idea so many people shared my views on this I'm so glad
