tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

i feel like it was privilege to read this book and get a glimpse of the black community and dub world of London in late 70s, which has led to some youtube trips to listen to the music genres mentioned to understand the picture better, especially how heavily the plot involves music. The last 20 pages were not my favourite ending at all, I could think of so many satisfying, some less pleasant, endings but considering how close this is to the author's experience it's not my story to change.
