I couldn't get into this book. The characters largely seemed like caricatures and a lot of the choices she made rubbed me the wrong way. It is definitely a book about racism by a white woman for white women, and I'd rather read about the subject by those who have lived it. Neither Turk nor Ruth's voices felt genuine and the characterization didn't seem very consistent.

There were also many long paragraphs full of medical jargon that seemed wholly unnecessary, other than to prove that she did her research. Two stars for the easy reading, but I wouldn't recommend this book.
