The Water Dancer: A Novel | Ta-Nehisi Coates

pick

4/5
Poetic and fluid, Coates' prose is beautiful. And its beauty is especially pronounced when describing the horrific and devastating effects of slavery. Through Hiram Walker, we see the cruel reality of families being separated and how they survived in the most abominable circumstances - through grit and dissociation. And possibly it is because of the dissociation that the MC felt distant. There were parts that felt slow, but still beautiful.

The Wonderful Things You Will Be | Emily Winfield Martin

The Wonderful things you will be is realistic Fiction picture book written in simple but beautiful words. That can be used for RA. A book that all moms, dad, and even grandparents should read to their kids. It expresses the love and expectation a grown-up has for their kids. Theme love from parents to child

There There: A novel | Tommy Orange

pick

Oooof.

Not sure I‘m up for writing a coherent review, but yes, I will be reading whatever Tommy Orange writes next. I love his writing, his big-picture histories, and his characters, his ability to make us care about each of them in the space of a short-story.

The chaos of the end- so stressful, so well done, but I‘m glad he didn‘t tie things up too tidily. Connected, messy lives- still connected, still messy, maybe different.

Still. Ooof.

squirrelbrain I loved this one too! ❤️ 5y

rockpools @squirrelbrain Somehow I didn‘t expect that ending, even though it had been building up to it from the start. 5y
