5.0

I was immediately into this book. I kept thinking to myself 'the title of the book has a bigger meaning." That thought process really added to my reading experience. This is not an enjoyable book because of the content. However, it is a great example of how tricksters show up in your life and plot against your down fall. Especially if you are a Black woman. This book speaks volumes to the many missing and murdered Black and Indigenous girls that are harmed everyday in America.
