I have complicated feelings about this book. Overall, I really enjoyed it. On the other hand, I feel Ike the author attempts to whack you over and over again with points they want you to know or to tell you how you’re supposed to feel. Which I never like in a book.  And some parts of it are really uncomfortably written. The ending really belabors some points. Am I glad I read it? Yes. Will I read something else by this author? Maybe. Maybe not.
