I would maybe give this to one or two of my high school students, but with the disclaimer that they’d be better off reading Fight Club instead.
Logic is a great rapper and there’s potential in his novel-writing, but this particular story is just a collage of other people’s ideas coupled with his youthful (very green) structural choices. Character development wasn’t at the core of the story, but it must be acknowledged that several of his characters read like fanfic, Reddit posts, and high schoolers’ short stories. Cringe.
If Hall wishes to write a book for a wider audience, he should try again and get honest, varied feedback from more than just his inner circle.
