jograce8 's review for:
Chain-Gang All-Stars
by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah
challenging
dark
tense
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
This book is so good. My main criticism is that there's too many characters being named and given their own chapters. It was too many for me to keep track of, but I get what each one was supposed to add to the story. It was a tough read emotionally, and provides great real-life footnotes to bridge moments on books with our current "justice" system. Abolition now
