Does anyone else notice a potential typo on page 50 ? Benny is called Benji once and then he is called Benny again a few words later ? I do not know if this is a typo or if he Is called Benji again later in the book.

Teresa I think it's deliberate - referring to when he was little, and in the same sentence as Kenji, maybe this is how Kenji referred to him as a little boy, before growing into Benny.
Sarah When I saw that, I thought maybe that was his full name and Benny is a nickname.
Sarah I think it's a typo. I noticed a handful of other typos throughout the book - about 6 total.
