Welcome to Litsy!

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

Brought a book to keep me company in the early voting line 🗳📖

These are the books I've read so far in lockdown (although technically two if them I had already started). I would recommend all of them although I consider to struggle with Baldwin's writing. I find his work really impactful but it takes me so long to read. #noraephron #jamesbaldwin #ottessamoshfegh #harukimurakami #chimamandangoziadichie #yaagyasi

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.

Thanks to Mother‘s Day shopping on the buy 2 get 3 table at B&N I finally own this book I‘ve been meaning to read for a while now!

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

#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.

I am reading this for an upcoming event at Hartford Public Library. #homegoing #yaagyasi

Yay #YaaGyasi and #Homegoing
