Review
This was really a roller coaster to read. It was difficult at times, especially around discrimination and police brutality. It was brilliant, gripping, and did not let up on the tension.
This is a very short review because I am lacking spoons, but this was an incredible novella.
Enjoyed with: green tea with strawberry
Time it took to read: one hour
Would recommend to: everyone, if you are able to deal with the triggers
