I was debating whether to give this book a 4 or 5 star rating for a while, but ultimately I found it quite informative, well researched and well written. Reni Eddo-Lodge makes her point with clarity and eloquence, without indulging in pointless semantic exercises, which makes this an engaging read.
As a white person willing to learn more about systemic racism and white privilege, I found this book useful to understand the perspective of black people, and see how things I usually consider normal are, in fact, damaging and problematic, and should be addressed.

Some good points, some bad points, sometimes I feel she's not very precise in her arguments (ex: people being accused of a crime and people being convicted of a crime are two different things, lumping them together to advance one's cause isn't peak intellectual honesty), and the fact that if you want to review any citation you need to go on a webpage isn't the easiest way to use this book for academic purposes.
