The Morning Show Murders by Al Roker
1.0
Half DNF. Boring, sexist, over-used tropes. Main character's personality waffles into vastly different traits, creating inconsistent behaviors. Best quote of the book?
"Glittering emerald-green eyes with a slightly Asian tilt, cheekbones that would have made Pocahontas proud, lips as full and sweetly curved as a Nubian princess's, all on smooth skin the color of café au lait." p142
Tell me how that's not racist. Mr. Roker should be disappointed to have his name attached to this.
The only redeeming point was the acknowledgement of cops attitudes towards black men, and even that was undercut by the cops themselves.
