While struggling with infertility, Candy and Frankie, a mixed-race couple living in Chicago, decide to adopt a Black child. Despite objections from their wildly different families, who beg the couple to go the more “traditional route,” Candy and Frankie schedule an appointment with the Department of Child Family Services in the hopes of finding not an infant, but a toddler—a child “no one else wants.” Beautifully rendered in a voice unlike any other in contemporary fiction, Pick Me grapples with notions of race, privilege, and ambition in the modern age – and the strain those forces can put on a relationship.

Short but filled with Substance

ByStylishCurvyGirlon August 6, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I had never heard of this Author before and tried this Kindle Single on a whim. While I have never been in an interracial relationship, I think this Author does an amazing job in this story story explaining the complexities of interracial dating, having ambition and how a family factors into that, as well as how a lot of times we skirt around issues in our relationships. Short essay but very thought provoking.

Did not like the story. Probably very true to life and best decision was made. Easy to read. Will try another book by author.

Just okay

ByDaniel Hon October 20, 2016

Format: Kindle Edition

It was an okay read. A little too descriptive and all over the place for me. It doesn't display anything more than the usual distain for interracial relationships.

Not for me

Bymitzuon October 23, 2016

Format: Kindle Edition

I wanted to like this but the writing style was such that I found myself rereading sentences, never quite finding the rhythm of the narrative.

Impotent

ByDisappointedon November 22, 2016

Format: Kindle Edition

The story simply fell flat. The beginning held promise but it didnt deliver. The characters were flat and uninteresting. I continued reading hoping it would get better. It didn't.
