2.10.2022 - Cherish Farrah

Cherish Farrah by Bethany C. Morrow

Thanks to NetGalley and Penguin Group Dutton for gifting me a digital ARC of this novel by Bethany C. Morrow - 3.5 stars!

Farrah is a young Black girl who manipulates her way into her best friend's home and family.  Cherish, a Black girl  was adopted by wealthy White parents, who give her a life even Farrah's wealthy parents can't.  When Farrah's parents hit a financial downturn, Farrah moves into Cherish's home.  But things start happening beyond even Farrah's strict control measures.

This one was tough for me - it was very slow, especially in the beginning.  The topic of racism and classism were interesting and there was also a horror vibe throughout.  I was probably not the right audience - I liked the writing and suspense but ended up feeling somewhat confused at the end.
