That was a piece of a good book. Loved how the author made a fasctinating thriller and page-turner also a methaphor for system racism - I hope it makes many people new to the subjects of priveledges read the novel. The complexity of the system she created suprised me - didn't expect it to be so detailed. However, there wasn't much new info about racism for me - not really for people who look for a book that will educate them when they have a base knowledge of the topic. Nonetheless, a big recommendation from me!!
