![]() "That I missed the point", "The book did not say 'All' people of a certain group", "Don't you understand what the political climate is in America right now?", etc. If you have a criticism of my review, it most likely been discussed ad nauseum so I encourage you to look through the comments first. You may notice that this review has lots of comments. Goodreads is all about differing opinions and I embrace that. I do not go to the 5 star reviews and try to prove them wrong. I am glad many people had a better experience with it than I did. I am okay with all the 5 star reviews of this book. So, the fact that my review is only promoting negative behavior (in some cases) is sad to me. In fact, the point of my opinion is that discussions on this topic drives people apart and causes people to hate each other. That was 100% not my intention and I want it to stop. I have been unfriended and unfollowed by many. I have been told that I missed the point, I am dense, I have lost respect from people, I think I am better than others, etc. I have received negative feedback from both sides of my argument! That's right, I picked a hot button topic and managed to annoy people on both sides (that is pretty impressive). That is fine! All opinions welcome! I just don't want to fight about it because I have no desire to change anyone's opinion. But, this review simply shares my opinion on a topic I felt was key to the story. I know, I know, what did I expect sharing a controversial opinion on social media!? Yeah, I admit I guess I should have seen that coming. But, responses have become uncomfortable to the point I cringe when I open Goodreads. I knew that this would be controversial as it touches on a hot button topic. The review in it's entirely is below in the spoiler tag. I have decided to add a disclaimer to my review.
