this book. just wow. 

this book combines a great story with many social and current issues. such as race, privilege, money, savior complex, fetishization of poc (especially women) and much more. 
It is thought provoking in a way I have never experienced before. 

The story is told from two different points of view (a white woman and a black woman), which I really liked and punctualizes the problem even more.
