I still don’t really know how to feel this one. It’s marketed as a thriller but only the last chunk was actually thriller-esque, the first half was super slow for me and it feels a bit underdeveloped, it’s a compelling social commentary on gentrification and race for sure, but maybe it was just trying to do too much and therefore didn’t totally nail it for me?

The ending picked up speed and got freaky and had me flipping pages, but then it ended too fast and felt flat.

I think I just didn’t click into what this book was or what it was trying to be, and it just ended up being okay (⭐️⭐️) for me.
