The writing is excellent. This book is for you if you appreciate wordsmithing. It’s not for you if you’re looking for a light read. The author has a way with words and so she sometimes spends entire pages on an idea that could’ve reduced to one paragraph. Worth the read!
Graphic: Cursing and Racism
Moderate: Sexual violence
Minor: Homophobia
