Jenny Jaybles reviewed Unfortunates by J. K. Chukwu
Be patient, it is good.
4 stars
I almost wanted to DNF at the beginning but I am very glad I did not DNF. Be patient with this book. It is worth it. I cried. I laughed. It's the coming of age story that is needed because we all can't just read The Bell Jar and stop there as if that is the definitive young woman at college story. No this book has added much to this genre or legacy. There should be more books like this. Being the only poor person in a room full of people who do not get your socioeconomic background and would rather pretend you don't exist is a terrible time.
