OK. Here's the thing. This is a post-2016 election book. The author wrote what everyone in suburbia likely wanted to do (at least those who were horrified by the election results): she wrote about a woman who has had it with her suburban life (read: husband, neighborhood, kid), and made a move closer into the city in a run down house. I loved the perspective of her trying to make a new life while battling with her decision to leave the other one behind, but I felt like the author tried to throw in a BLM situation that did not necessarily play out in a way that made sense with the book. It almost came across as an afterthought. Had it been the main focus, then it may have worked, but it detracted from the main focus: a woman trying to find herself in a sea of regret.
