The shifting timelines and perspectives kept me engaged but also made me wonder about the author’s creative process. Was this structure planned from the start or did it evolve during writing?

The novel's portrayal of hardship and social decay felt very visceral. I’m curious how others experienced the emotional tone—was it overwhelming or eye-opening for you?

The book touches on so many issues—poverty, race, family, ambition—but I wonder which themes resonate most with different readers and why.
