A review by melaninuncorkedbc
The Water Dancer by Ta-Nehisi Coates

4.0

At first, I did not think I was going to finish this book. Coates definitely has a special writing style. There are so many layers to this book, and so many stories within stories. Once I was able to catch on, I started to live through the characters. We read this for my book club for the month of April, and I am glad that it was added to the list.

His writing allowed me to feel, and understand more in depth, things I already knew. I didn't know it was based off a true story. I am looking forward to reading the recommendation that this was branded off of at the end of the book.
