avalydia 's review for:

Darktown by Thomas Mullen
4.0

Loved the writing style. Also appreciated how the white protagonist, though certainly less appalling than his coworkers, still harbored racist beliefs and was nowhere near perfect - given the setting and the time, this felt like the appropriate choice (also preventing the reader from using the "well not all white people" excuse to avoid feeling uncomfortable).

I'll definitely be checking out the sequel.
