One of the worst I've ever tried to read--

So many characters you just can't keep them straight or know what part they play in this mess

The story was just confusing and I never did understand what was going on and finally just didn't care

Too much emphasis put on who was black and who was white, I mean does it really matter? and I got very tired of having 'the color of chocolate', 'white as a sheet' or 'caramel color' thrown into every page, for me it doesn't matter so why put emphasis on it?

Overall I'd say skip this one it is just a mess!
