This book challenged me and left me perplexed at times. Understanding the nuances of race and the implications it has on the way individuals are viewed in society, I felt like this book was intended to annoy me while exposing ignorance to those who choose to ignore it. I highly recommend. I hate that these types of stories are necessary, but I appreciate their existence.
