I'm definitely glad I've read this book. I most definitely enjoyed it. I also definitely didn't love it.
I feel that there were many sections in which the theme of intersectionality was pushed in too academic a way. From that point of view, a number of other authors (academic and not strictly speaking so) would have been more appealing to me.
On the other hand, when the characters are presented and interact in what feels - to me - like a more free-flowing way, then the book turns into the equivalent of a good (if not as humourous) Zadie Smith novel, and I'm definitely more captivated.
Or at least I think so (a line that at the end of the day should precede every single post on this blog).
