I loved this book, it's just a shame that there are some questionable things the author has said. I thought it was very insightful, and the discussion around race as a non-american was very entertaining to read and pretty interesting. I do think more people should read this, and I can totally understand why it is such a popular book. I read this for my race final and had to dissect the book and its themes, but that honestly made me appreciate it even more. I do think the romance was kinda thrown in there for just something else to talk about, especially at the end. I could believe that they were in love in their younger years, but not by the time they were adults. highly recommend this book i loved it.
