This was a wildly entertaining book! Had no expectations or knowledge of the story prior to starting, it was a random library grab as I wanted a shorter read.
The book pulled me in rather quick. I didn't know the Ku Klux Klan could be made to look even more repulsive. Hate being the theme of all sides and worlds involved in the story, definitely made this an engaging read. Hate fighting hate!
The phonetic dialogue took a minute to get used to but was necessary, in my opinion. Added to the immersiveness and mood of the book.
Recommended read for sure.

Just wasn't appealing to me. Perhaps it was the hype that had set my expectations, but I felt myself cringing throughout much of the book. Primarily from the protagonists actions, dialogue and his I-have-the-solution-to-every-obstacle attitude. I am aware that this is very likely the authors intention.
I was a video game kid and young adult, born in the 80's. So those elements held me in, but couldn't solely carry the book for me.
This is just my personal review. So read it if you like, many have.
