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

5.0

This is a beautiful story about our human nature to have freedom. No human was born to be a slave to anyone. We need freedom and rights. This books paints that beautifully.
As you can expect, it is heartbreaking. When Hiram learned he would be a servant to Maynard I was heartbroken with him! And when Hiram runs into Mary, my goodness her explanations are devastating and powerful.
The writing was fantastic and the story beautifully told. It is just an amazing book.
