I shuddered at every “monkey stomp”. Listen and you unfortunately get my drift.The premise got me in, enough so I even went for the second book . The slow roll collapse is indeed a likely outcome for the United States. Which is why I gave it a shot.However the dorky interplay between characters was brutal…

Olsen once again steps off the beaten path of obvious villains and chooses an interesting subject. Growing up black in a white world, this “mascot” label he was able to masquerade behind, and the charm he weaponized to keep himself off the police’s suspect radar made him a relatable character for generations in America. The..
