tangiblereads 's review for:

The Union by Leah Vernon
4.0

This is a unique dystopian reverse racism/oppression novel. Captivating start to finish. It brings to mind so many issues currently in society: black/white racism, white elitism, colorism in the black community, racial selection/purification, oppression, stereotyping, racial profiling, and police violence. I am sure I can go on. It is fast paced and gets right to the action. It is told from 2 different perspectives but there are many similarities. Fantastic story. It did not leave in a cliff hanger; however, the story is not finished. Book provided as a free ARC in return for honest review via #NetGalley, #TheUnion.
