It's a good book. I have some issues. Like a white author using the n-word even if it came from the mouth of someone else and its a memoir. The lines are blurry for me so I leave that issue to those it pertains to.
Like I said. The details in this book are very very hard to deal with sometimes. At least for me. Substance abuse, S*xual Assa*lt, Neglect, Childe Abuse. Things that hit a little too close for home for me. This book is an eye opener for sure though.
But I would of felt better reading this at a different point in my life. I'm reading this as a summer reading assignment before my sophmore year of highschool. I am pretty young and admittedly not emotionallĀ equiped to handle the topics this book has. Often reading it felt too trauma inducing.
I beg of any highschool teacher to re-think giving this to your students.Ā The topics may be important and relatable to some students but it isĀ extremely triggering. Though I know most students wouldn't read it had they been given the choice so forcing it on them may be the only way. I can't stress enough how irresponsible and negligent it feels to give such a triggering book to Highschool students who may experiencing all that in that moment.
I was given 0 warnings beforehand. Nothing mentioning content warnings. An amazing read as it may be. But I suggest to people to be more careful with this book.
