A review by moth_dance
Black Leopard, Red Wolf by Marlon James

4.0

*full disclosure* I haven't finished this book. Yet. But I felt compelled to leave a review.

I'm half way through. I'm fully invested. But I need to take a break.

I'm reading this during COVID-19 days, and its been a lot to sit with and digest on my own. Thankfully, Nerdist Book Club picked it up last month and I fell in love with it while digitally discussing the fine points of the first half of the story.

But I can't continue it in a rushed, homework style way. This is a book that demands respect and attention to detail. And I don't have that to offer as a reader and consumer right now.

I will return to this book. Soon. And I can't fucking wait. Because this book is the very essence of E P I C.
