Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi
5.0
emotional hopeful informative tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

This book tore my heart out, mostly because I felt called to myself, the pain I’ve caused others, and the pain others have caused me. For as long as Gyasi is publishing I will be following her work closely. A wonderful second novel to follow Homegoing.
