    It was okay. Not bad but not great. I was expecting more based on the reviews. It wasn’t a page-turner for me.

    I enjoyed the glimpse into s London, but I struggled to connect with some of the characters. Overall, a decent read.

    Important historical fiction, but I struggled with the dialect. It made it difficult to fully immerse myself in the story, sadly.

    A poignant portrayal of the Caribbean immigrant experience. Some of the slang was hard to follow, but the message is clear.

    A unique perspective on the immigrant experience. I found it interesting, even though it wasn’t always easy to read. It’s a bit dense.
