Pickpick

8/22 I finished this book yesterday and I had to let my feelings about it settle before reviewing. I loved the premise, it is original and definitely for our time. I really liked the MC. Harris did an excellent job of giving white women like me a view into the experience of black women in the work place. But the pacing was very off and it felt as though the plot and extra characters either needed fleshing out or cutting back. Overall a pick ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Magpiegem @Cinfhen I was just doing some research into black owned imprints and realised that this book is from Atria Books which is an imprint of Simon & Schuster. So I am going to use it for #fromablackownedimprint for #Booked2022 2y
Cinfhen Great choice!! I also thought this book started so strong but than it entered crazzzy town…low pick from me but I was happy I read it. 2y
Magpiegem @Cinfhen yes I‘ll definitely choose to pick up future books by Harris but this one just didn‘t quite work for me. But like you glad I read it. 2y
