This was such a great read, I can hardly put my review into words. Bennett has such beautiful imagery and colorful writing that paired with an enamoring plot, makes the perfect stand-alone novel. The commentary on racism, colorism, + misogynoir in this book is complex yet delivered so eloquently. Run don’t walk to pick this up if you haven’t read it yet!
