Wow.
This is such a poignant critique on the publishing industry. Delivered through the means of a frustratingly unlikeable unreliable narrator. It was engaging and angering - exploring themes of racism and microaggressions. Probably one of my favourite reads this year. One of my favourite reads of all time. Read almost in one sitting. Could not put it down!
