Idk what I expected from a book about a pedo written by a old white lady but this ain’t it. I don’t like the way the black characters were described and talked about and the use of the n-word is completely unnecessary. I don’t like the authors writing style, it’s really just obnoxious. There’s a lot of really interesting reviews for this book so if you’re interested I’d say read some of those reviews. I don’t know anything about this author, this is my first read of her’s so just want to put that out there. Probably won’t read any of her other books.
