Brigid asked this question about A Deadly Education (The Scholomance, #1):
Hearing tell of some incredibly racist passages in this. Who else is taking this off their TBR?
☘Misericordia☘ ⚡ϟ⚡⛈⚡☁ ❇️❤❣ Many people are idiots so they would tell any BS.
Many other people are gullible and would believe any BS they hear.
These 2 groups of people should be…more
Many people are idiots so they would tell any BS.
Many other people are gullible and would believe any BS they hear.
These 2 groups of people should be plenty welcome not to read anything at all, including this one.

As for the rest of us regular people:
We know that lice can attack any person's hair regardless of race or anything. Lice don't chat to potential hosts. So, the dreadlock is a non-issue.

The rest of the 'racist' allusions are just as BS as the dreadlocks thing, frankly.

I've read it and it's a really good fantasy novel. Considering that I'm the 1st reader to dock points for misinterpreted cultural stuff, I say that this novel pleasantly surprised me. (less)
