A review by katiemack
Jaded by Ela Lee

4.25

I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

This was a brutal read (in the best way). It covers tons of topics in a small amount of pages--sexual assault, racism, multiracial relationships and identity, etc. There's a rawness in the way Ela Lee writes that makes it clear that every one of these topics is personal, and the way she details the sexual assault and its consequences (or, for some, lack thereof) is so realistic that it made me incensed to read.
