A review by ehmannky
Black Leopard, Red Wolf by Marlon James

Did not finish book.

Listen, there aren’t a lot of things that truly can put me off a book and I’m not that squeamish with what I read but after

the hyena gang-rape of the protagonist that followed many other instances of sexual assault

I have decided that this book, however wonderfully written it may be, just is not for me.
