Struggling with the writing style. Some of it is really pretty, but the rest of it feels like it tries too hard and fails to make sense. The scent of sunlight?? Also it feels odd to read the sentence "I didn't really know what made a person colored or not, but the way he said it made me glad I wasn't" from a white author.

Either the writing is getting better or i’m finally getting used to it - enjoying the book within the book so far

I think I'm getting more used to the writing style. It still pulls me out of the story on occasion when I have to stop and figure out what she means by certain descriptions; but I do feel myself getting immersed in the story. Still uncomfortable with the mentions of race. Also I think I would be in love with her writing if she just dialed it back a bit and didn't try to give every single sentence 120%.
