Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid
4.25
Thought-provoking social commentary written in a way that was enjoyable to read. The book grapples with race and class in an interesting way, allowing the main characters to be both right and wrong at different times within the book. This book leaves you with a lot to think about.
The characters were all very well-written. Alix and Emira were both written with a lot of nuance, which made their actions feel very believable. There was an interesting juxtaposition between Emira’s lack of ambition versus Alix’s over-ambition. I enjoyed the bond between Emira and Briar.
