* If your looking for a book that talks about the racist problems poc people face id suggest a differnet book, one written by a person who actually experienced racism.
* This was written by a white woman with mostly white characters carrying the "white saviour complex" and she just adds in racial slurs whenever wich ( as a white person) can pull you out the story because reading it feels wrong. I get the whole point of the book is how divided the white and black comunities are but reading this with a modern perspective makes the writing come off a bit privleged.
Listen. To give a bit of context about how uncomfortable this book is to read. The n-word is used 48 times in this book and there are 281 pages. Meaning every 4 pages there is a slur or 2.
An overated book in my opinion and i will not be reading the next one.
(exucse my spelling mistakes you can blame Miss Dyslexia)

If the subjects of Racism, Rape or abuse triggers you then this isnt the book for you because that is the main focus.blueberryelf's review against another edition
