gheneks 's review for:

Society of Lies by Lauren Ling Brown

2.0

---

I did not enjoy this. I found it contrived and uninteresting. The social commentary on racism and white privilege felt forced and ineffective. There were just too many characters that were all the same. I could only tell the sisters apart because the audiobook has two narrators. And omg the plot holes. And I hate when adult narrators try to do kid voices. It’s so cringey.

I gave it two stars because this is a debut and I want to encourage new writers. Hoping the author’s second book is better.
