5.0

I listened to this as an audiobook and am really glad that I did. I really liked this book and laughed out loud more than a few times. I know Amber is a comedian so that tracks but her sister Lacey is pretty funny too. And they way they bounced off each other was awesome to witness.

That said, there are still parts of the book that were hard to get through. The random micro and macro aggressions Lacey experienced on the regular boiled my blood more than a few times. I understand the desire to deal with situations like this in a humorous manner but underneath the laughter was still understandable anger, sadness, and on some levels resignation. I actually think a lot of people would benefit from listening to this to understand how some Black people treated from kindergarten. I don't think anyone could listen to this book and still think that we don't have a race problem here in the US.

Highly recommend but be prepared to be upset and/or face some harsh truths.
