Horrific narrator that I couldn’t stop listening to. Author did a great job of making me sympathetic for the protagonist while also making me despise her to the core. This isn’t my usual genre, but I was entertained (in the same way that I’m entertained by overblown celebrity gossip). Is this a bad reflection on me? Am I the problem? 👀
Graphic: Cursing, Death, Cultural appropriation, and Racism
