Super quick, fast-paced read that's well-written and with an awesome cover! 

I've read a couple of books using a similar plot with the protagonist publishing a stolen book, but this was still a fresh take, with much more focus/analysis on racism and the whole publishing industry. Raises interesting questions and feels very current with references and everything else.

Sometimes it felt a bit rushed in parts (I guess the thriller sections, which I wasn't expecting) and didn't love the ending, but generally really good so I'd recommend. I want to read Babel next!
