challenging dark emotional reflective sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

Really captivating and complex. It was one of those hard to look hard to look away kind of books. I appreciated the willingness to explore the complicated nature of trauma, family, and racism. It was tough to get through because of the content but you're left feeling glad you read it.
