WTFFFF like fuck Sarita’s parenting style but she does not deserve that 😭😭

Girl fuck Bill

I’m really liking this so far. Obviously I’m not a black woman but I feel like it offers an honest look into black American culture in the 90s and now, especially through the lens of a cosmopolitan, Carrie-Bradshaw-esque woman. It’s written so conversationally, so smooth, it’s like talking to a friend. Excited to read more!

Just got started on this and it’s exactly the kind of book I was looking for to jumpstart my urge to read for pleasure again. Although from the cover and first couple pages I assumed this would be light-hearted chick lit, it’s already giving me an undercurrent of darkness and trauma that I think really enriches the otherwise very feel-good writing style and imagery. Already relatable.Excited to see where it goes!
