Paper Gods: A Novel of Money, Race, and Politics
by Goldie Taylor
I listened to the audio version of Paper Gods and I actually think that I would have enjoyed the story more if I had read it instead. The narrator was fine but I didn't enjoy the way she narrated the male characters, it just sounded weird to my ear and her southern drawl for a few of the more sinister male characters was almost comical. Bahni Turpin is a really good narrator so I was surprised to have not enjoyed this one as an audio book.
The actual story is a bit drawn out and there are a lot of moving pieces which I didn't really mind. I did mind all of the details of name brands and descriptions of what people were eating. That's purely a personal disinterest on my part. Those details do not add any real interest for me.
This was my first Goldie Taylor story and I will be looking to pick up her two backlist titles eventually.
