I absolutely LOVED The Underground Railroad and The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead, so I was really excited to read this book. I was expecting to be completely captivated by another one of Colson's works, but unfortunately I just couldn't get into this one. I do appreciate the story setup and Ray's character, and did like the ending. I will definitely still be buying Colson's books in the future... this one just wasn't for me.

Thanks to Doubleday and NetGalley for the ARC!
