This definitely wasn't an enjoyable read in the normal sense, I didn't feel any joy reading it and it was a heavy read in parts, but it was compelling and very readable.

Obviously the themes of racism and homophobia are a huge part in this story, but its so heavy handed that it became a bit repetitive in the middle and second half. 

I did like the action and the conclusion, it was very hard to put down once everything started ramping up.
