I really wanted to love this book. But so much of it gave me the ick.

The main character is super self destructive and flawed - but it kind of glossed over that and had her positioning her blackness as the root of some of her problems for a lot of the book. Idk it just came off really strange. She needed to stay in therapy longer…like that’s my big book takeaway
