Just not my thing. A little too slow, morally compromised main character a little too self absorbed (though to the author’s credit, she’s very believable & you get why she is the way she is, it’s not for no reason, & she’s clearly not supposed to be totally sympathetic), & I am just… not very interested in the art world for many of the reasons that come up as issues in this book! I think there were interesting things happening with race/whiteness & the marketability of art about race. and I like the choice to explore that with a main character who is a little bit terrible. Taking this as a sign that I should stop reading my roommate’s books just because they’re around the house and easy to pick up lol
