Book Review: Spin by Lamar Giles

Review

I’ve read other works by this author before in anthologies so I was excited to read a full length novel. It did take me some time to get into the story but once I did, I was hooked. I enjoyed how in depth this book was when it came to music, shady people and the intense fandom as well. This book also touched on the lack of media coverage when a person of color is killed which I thought was an important topic as well. When the killer is revealed I honestly wasn’t expecting it to be that person. I had my money on someone else. Way to keep me on my toes! I love the fact that book had diverse characters and not just your stereotypical black characters as well. As a black woman I found this very refreshing! Overall, I did enjoy this book and look forward to reading more books from this author.
