The book was entertaining. An easy read and had some interesting stories. However some of the experiences/thoughts shared were concerning (rape, incest)

I appreciate the historical impact of this book but struggled with some of the messaging!

Stopped at chapter 10. Not super interested - it feels childish and I know it's supposed to be because it's written in the perspective of a child but I just find it a little annoying

No one and nothing is likeable. Also came across too many slurs (including racist ones) and I’m not interested in continuing to read this rubbish.
