Penitence: A Novel by Kristin Koval

2.5

This would've gone down as a "fine, just not for me" book if it weren't for the two H*rry P*tter references and single use of the term Asp*rg*rs. There were some interesting transformative justice and abolition themes in this, but they got lost along the way. I was curious, then bored. Plus, it's 2025. It should be easy to avoid the aforementioned missteps.
