The only reason this isn't a 5 star review is because I think it took too long to get going and the start was a bit confusing.

The Other Black Girl delves deep into the competitive and very white world of publishing but with a razor hidden at its back.. I honestly didn't expect the wee twists, and as a few reviews say it is a bit of a slow burner but I think that adds to the confusion and journey Nella is on when Hazel turns up at Wagner.

The story mainly is told from Nella's POV, but interspersed with smaller chapters from other characters who don't necessarily add to the main story but do go a long way to building up the tension to the end.
