I went into this book completely blind, but maybe I should not have. For example, I did not realize it was a satire until after I finished reading it. My thoughts were sort of all over the place with it. It certainly was different than anything I’ve ever read before and I am glad I read it because it is outside of my comfort zone but did I like it? The jury is still out.
The author is talented, of that I have no doubt. I also think that it beings up many important discussion about race. I was so angry for Darren in many of the early scenes of the book. It was disgusting how he was treated. But I think there was truth to that, and that POC experience situations like that regularly. This would probably be an excellent read for a high school or college class. It would have some excellent talking points. I’m kind of bummed this isn’t a real life story though, because Darren is someone who could change the world.
What I didn’t like most was the parts that actually talked to the reader and gave point on how to be a good sales person. I think it took away from the story and it really bugged me. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
