SCREAMINGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! 😡 😭

A wild retelling of Carrie and the racial injustice and discrimination of small town modern America. Right now I’m both pissed and confused (as a white woman who cannot relate to racial discrimination). I love how Tiffany D Jackson brings the pain of being a black person into a familiar horror story. Painful but accurate.

This book is starting to read like Stephen King‘s Carrie. This book is already going into a lot of racial discriminatory acts. The one girl who says he doesn’t talk like them. He talks normal, made me mad. But this book has me hooked so far.
