The first one was meh at best and this one felt worse. Wouldn't get past chapter 2.
Minor: Blood
Honestly struggled with the audiobook - will be trying again with a physical copy!
Unlikeable characters, the background makes no sense (how can she be part of a power-couple so famous everyone online knows who she and he are, but her work doesn't??? Also no idea why they are together in the first place). I couldn't stick with it since I wasn't enjoying it at all
Struggling to finish it and it's a library borrow so can't keep it any longer.
May try again at a later date.

Graphic: Violence
Not enjoying it, and have a lot to focus on right now. Will try again later!
Moderate: Abandonment
Struggling a little with this - maybe would work as an audiobook, but since they are speeches and some are speeches given days from each other and feel very similar. May try again later.
Not the right headspace - might try the audiobook but will try it again!
Not in the right headspace for this - will come back to it!
Graphic: Violence, Police brutality
Found the writing quite confusing. Honestly I don't think I'm in the right head space for this but maybe will try again at a later date.
Will say if you're reading Zadie Smith for the first time, don't start with this one!

Graphic: Abortion
Moderate: Animal death, Violence
This seemed really interesting but I found it quite confusing and honestly boring.
The main character is meant to be young (she's like 9) but she is very whiny and yet acts like a 5 year old and an adult at the same time. She can manipulate men but also wants to play and has tantrums when she doesn't get her way.
All the reviews I saw said that this was not historically accurate at all, so if that's something you care about, I'd Skipp this one.
Overall, I hated this. Xoxox
