The journey and realizations was certainly a ride. I loved the slow progression of the protagonist’s thoughts and opinions as he’s pushed into the wringer on several occasions. It’s certainly a drag sometimes, it’s a long a book, but gosh darn is it something to witness. It’s explicit in its message, the struggles and all. There’s something so exposing with everything they do.
Graphic: Hate crime and Racism
Moderate: Incest and Infidelity
