✨ Thrifted ✨

What a harrowing story 🥺 Pecola did not deserve any of the difficulties she went through.
I am so horrified that Cholly raped her! I got incredibly choked up reading through the ‘Spring’ part 😫


I found the writing bitty and hard to get through at times, so I had to put it down every now and then. 
3.5 out of 5 stars for me, thank you ✨
