Not Here to Make Friends by Jodi McAlister
3.0
For main characters that are both so unlikable, how is it that I walked away rooting for them and liking them so much?
Bordering on Sociopathic, reality show producers that manipulate and twist what we think is truth behind the camera, it was reminiscent of the show “unreal” it was an interesting ride filled with grief, manoeuvres, moral grays, and a bunch of cussing.
They talked a lot about not wanting to make a big deal about racism, while also making a big deal about racism. Wokeness was thrown in but it was balanced with the manipulating and chaotic realty tv adventures. Grief explored in a really interesting way.
Somehow though, it was still a heck of an interesting ride.
