COLORED TELEVISION had me dying laughing. Dying. Danzy Senna is fearless in exploring our hang-ups about race. And so fucking funny. It was also a pretty sharp send up of Hollywood too.

Toni Morrison

This book is God, it is science, it is history, it is death, and it is life, and most of all it is an exploration of love, which has its own logic and reason for being.

The twists, honey! The twists. I love a story where a regular person has to solve a crime—in this instance by wading through the morass of social media accounts and the politics of TikTok journalism.
