A review by ilona_cupfulofpoetry
Gather Together in My Name by Maya Angelou

hopeful inspiring fast-paced

5.0

I don’t know how to properly explain and summarize just what this book means to me. It couldn’t have found me at a better time. While there were things that made me uncomfortable ( the lesbophobia parts were difficult to digest as a lesbian ), I have also been almost unable to stop thinking about it. The hope… the determination in this story is so strong; this book should be read by every teenager who’s preparing to head out into the world.
