Those Bones Are Not My Child by Toni Cade Bambara

I don’t feel like it is fair to rate this book as I only read 200 pages of it but i just could not get engaged in it. It didn’t capture my interest and I found myself looking on my phone or getting otherwise distracted.

It follows the quotidian life of 2 parents after their son goes missing and the racism they face trying to get the police to do anything about it. I think it is just too slow paced for my liking right now although the dragging monotony of life without any answers or progression echoes the parents experiences.
