Loved it. Sheds a whole new light on African-American history. Especially the last 50 or so pages got to me.

Loved it. Very easy to follow the flow of the author. It has a lot of very satisfying full-circle moments.

Thoroughly enjoyed it. Loved the e-mails. It made sense. Some parts were too patriotic for my taste, but still.

5.0

An absolute dream. 10/10. Addie is a great character. She makes sense. Luc not really, but I still love the idea of him. They fit together so well. Loved the twists. The writing style is amazing. At times it is philosophical, other times whimsical. The story often directly translates into real life. It stays interesting.

Didn't like the first one, don't know why I bought this one. The first ~170 pages were incredibly boring, basically nothing happened.
Our main character is oblivious to everything.
Was very boring.
It has a plot point futher discussing SA which was done very tastefully imo, for that I give 2 stars.
In the beginning the banter wasn't as cringe-worthy as it was in the first book, so that was a plus.
Temper continues to be the embodiment of the stereotype of the black best friend which is so incredibly damaging.
