3.0

Really loved this book during the first 2/3 of it, however I struggled to get through the last hundred pages. Sinclair has an intriguing writing style, an insightful look into the American past, and unfortunate circumstances that make you wonder what’s going to happen next. Didn’t love the racism in one chapter.
