You can find the first chapter of Revealing Eden online

It's so much worse than people said.

If you read to the end of the chapter you find out that the poor oppressed white girl's term she uses constantly for her black overlords is considered a jawdropping slur. The book is apparently a metaphor for the current miserable horrors of a world where you can't insult other races with impunity despite how white and blonde you are.

I've read excerpts. It seems like the author was trying to switch the roles to show privileged whites how bad it is, but then she also refers to the story of a black and and a white woman falling in love as a "beauty and the beast story". And she uses fucking "coal" to refer to black people (unless that's just Eden? the vids make it seem like blacks call themselves coals, but I could be wrong) and pearls refer to whites. Because that's never had any historical connotation, ever.

This author reinforces stereotypes without bothering to show why these stereotypes are hurtful, harmful and wrong. They're just...there.

NO WAI. I am appalled, tbh. Where's my pearls, gotta clutch them.

I may need to steal my father's blood pressure meds before I delve into that mess.

No, no, the author honestly hates black people, that's where the idea comes from, the idea of the world being turned from its rightful black oppressing order. I was expecting well-meaning just regula incompetence and it's so much worse.

Eden goes on about how ugly she is, but also assumes her white skin makes her a popular gangrape target and knows that white used to be attractive and likes to watch videos of attractive white people. Eden mentions the unfair stereotype is of lazy lying white people, but it's when she's talking about her lazy lying black coworker. She says she's too skinny and needs curves, but considers the same coworker is fat, not curvy. Eden claims black is beautiful, but she's disgusted by the idea of them touching her.

I got as far as the point where she realizes her black boyfriend was actually just using her to find out about the secret genetic cocktail of jaguar/snake that her dad made, that her black boss ends up taking turning him into a literal roaring beastman.

Well, that's all...lovely. Gods. Vanity publishing at its finest. I really hope this doesn't get popular. I rather hope the author gets called out on her awful racism and gets kicked off the planet.

From, what I've seen, the book has three times the 1-star reviews as there are 5. Although I could see it having and audience with the people highlighted on this site: http://foxnewscomments.com/tag/worst/
