This is the first audiobook I’ve ever finished and for that I am grateful as it may have finally unlocked this reading method for me! That being said, I wanted to love this but did not. I couldn’t get past the very “not like the other Black kids” every she gave off and while the book showcased her growth, the confrontations left me feeling fairly empty.
