I picked this up for a city wide bookclub.

The first half to three-quarters of the book was slow, but needed to set up the story, making me wonder why it was tagged as a thriller. The story took a hard turn during the last few chapters, clarifying why it was a thriller.

I enjoyed the book, but wish it had moved along more quickly. I would have rated it a 5 if it was a little more consistent throughout the book.

gives space to talk about the heavy complexities of gentrification and US history, thought it was super well-researched the shoot out aspect was… a lot for me 😴 but i think would be really good for a different reader
