There were some parts that dragged on a bit for me—mostly the description of the houses—but for the most part it kept my rapt attention. Just note trigger warnings like racism and attempted SA.

It is told in a non-linear fashion. Things happen and then you see events from an earlier point in time that lead up to what you just saw. I didn't mind it and putting it together added some interest in my opinion but if that approach isn't for you then this book may not be either. It a short enough book and a quick enough read I can't see it being much of a put off for most folks though.
