What I Liked:
  • Everything. Seriously, this book was incredible.
  • This was SUCH a good look into racism and ableism in the workforce, as well as a good picture of how greed and money can change someone.
  • This book made me uncomfortable and made me think, for all of the right reasons.
  • I HATED the characters I was supposed to hate, and loved the ones I was supposed to love. The author rounded his characters out beautifully.
  • The narrator of this one was FABULOUS. One of the best narrators I've listened to.

You Should Read If You Like:
  • If you're working towards antiracism, I highly suggest this one.
  • DEFINITELY look at the TWs before picking this one up.
