1.0

Disappointing, but on par for this author. The amount of unnecessary trauma/drama thrown into this story left a bad taste in my mouth towards all Tiffany D. Jackson books. 

How much can I witness one character be dragged through before I can no longer suspend disbelief? 

Seems like she just enjoys torturing her characters. 

The amount of colorism, racism, fat shaming, ableism, false 'mental health' representation, abuse, mentions of rape and molestation, inappropriate sexual relationships, stereotypes, and just downright torture for shock value that took place in this book - disgusting.

My second book from Jackson and was really enjoyable and easy to read. I don’t always like young adult lit. but ever since I read Monday’s Not Coming, I’ve chosen the occasional YA novel lol. Something that’s been prevalent in both books I’ve read are the twist endings, and while it wasn’t as mind-bending as the one in MNC, it totally flipped the story on me. I also really liked the complexity of the characters (especially the other girls in the home) and how other issues could be tied into the main plot. Overall a great and quick read!! Looking forward to reading The Weight of Blood!!
