A review by steffiraquel
The Hive by Barry Lyga, Morgan Baden

Did not finish book. Stopped at 39%.
The hypocrisy is having a half-black main character be saved by a white man in dreads and him not be 'chased by the hive' for his cultural appropriation is lost on me, until I realized the authors are both white. Also abortion is NOT funny, I'm a strong believer in only joking about your own trauma and not someone else's. Not only that, I understand what the purpose of the hive is and that hurt people are usually the perpetrators, but I agree with consequences coming from things you put out into the world, only I'd prefer something along the lines of educating rather than dragging someone.
