You're so hyperaware of it, and of trying to look like you aren't prejudiced, you can't even understand that when you say race doesn't matter, all I hear is you dismissing what I've felt, what I've lived, what it's like to be put down because of the color of my skin" ...more

I loved the book. Racism is a very hard subject to tackle and Picoult does a good job writing about it. Turk, the white supremacist, was the most interesting character to me and terrifying at the same time. The book gave me a lot to think about especially with the current political climate in America.
