Unfortunately marking this as a DNF at just over the 50% mark. This has a very historically accurate and moving depiction of anti-black racism, but unfortunately, the storytelling is not doing it for me. It is incredibly slow and Gloria's perspective feels like it is adding so much unnecessary bloat to the book. After 300 pages not enough has happened for me to be invested, and I don't see myself giving this more than 3 stars even if I finish.
I don't think this is a bad book, but the nearly 600-page count feels SO unnecessary.
