Struggling to resolve how I think and feel about this book… drawn to it by subject and as a Booker Prize winner
12 stories about mostly black, British women… intertwined amongst each other.
This book is especially “rough” on the younger characters… made them very unlikeable.
We don’t get to know the characters very deeply… I think I would have preferred fewer characters and more depth beyond their sexual experiences.
