In the Gray by B.B. Reid
5.0

Whew… this book right here? I loved it. Easily one of the most well-written books I’ve read. The emotion, the pacing, the way the story unfolded chef’s kiss. When I first started reading, I had no clue where it was headed, and honestly, that made me love it even more. Now let me be real this book is not for everybody. That plot twist? I kinda peeped it early, but it was so taboo I kept telling myself, “Ain’t no way they doing that fr.” Then boom they did it. And I was just sitting there like, “Wow… y’all really went there.” The age gap is wild and the connection is way too close for comfort, but babyyy the way it was written?? I couldn’t put it down. Messy, uncomfortable, and still a 10/10 for me. If you like a book that makes you feel a lot and you’re not scared of a lil controversy, this one’s gonna stick with you.
