the book started a bit slow at first, and i didn't really like the setting in the beginning, but then it sucked me in.
i can't count the times i've been shocked, horrified, disgusted, and although it seemed a little all over the place, i didn't want to stop reading.
i loved the different perspectives we got with chiamaka and devon, and i am so incredibly grateful that the author provided trigger warnings in the beginning of the book!
also, i think i just really want to watch get out now.
