I was a bit confused at first since I thought it would be in Pecola's POV, but it was from the POV of other characters that would interact sometimes with Pecola. It didn't talk much about her for being a book about her.
I still really enjoyed it and think it's up there with necessary reads. Definitely read trigger warnings before reading. This is the type of book that you never feel good after reading.
