I started reading Homegoing last weekend. I'm currently page 60 and I've already fallen in love with so many quotes. This one is my fave so far ❤️

Highly recommend this one. The first half is difficult but if you can push through it‘s so worth the read.

Best #bookmailday to date. I have literally been waiting for this beautiful woman to write another beautiful book since I finished #homegoing. That book wrecked me in the best way possible.

Book6 of 2020 via audible. #Homegoing ; Impressive that it‘s a debut novel! Very well written and very well researched! A full circle novel spanning across centuries, yet each chapter connected to the last. It‘s “a portrait of the origins of slave trade and it‘s reverberations” stemming from Ghana.

JamieArc I‘m impressed that you did this as an audiobook! I loved it, but there are so many characters I wouldn‘t have been able to keep track listening to it. 5y
Frecks-Booklover4life @JamieArc Yes it did get tedious especially in the beginning ! There were a few times I would have to think back on who was connected to who! 5y

Yaa Gyasi's "Homegoing" has easily earned it's place in my list of favourites. A brutal, honest look at the slave trade and its legacy, the story explores the families of two half sisters with very different destinies. I fell in love with each of the characters and couldn't wait to pick it up again. Needless to say, it's 5 stars from me.

Yes, I know I‘m late to the party! #homegoing #yaagyasi #fiction 4.5/5📖

Emilymdxn Is that the American cover of the book?? So beautiful, I‘m British so I haven‘t seen it before 7y
Imbookenit @Emilymdxn I‘m not sure, it‘s the paper back so that‘s why it looks different from the yellow one. 7y

#Homegoing by #YaaGyasi was one of the most beautiful books i've ever read. The way historical racism plays a part in each characters lives helps me understand historical trauma in a way I think will change my life and give me a better understanding of racism going forward. Also, reading this was made better with my handmade bookmark given to me by a friend from Colorado, bought from a store that employs women fleeing domestic violence.
