A review by erintowner
An American Marriage by Tayari Jones

4.0

This is an important story about family and the people who stand by you long-term in life. The characters are gray, not black and white. The writing is beautiful. I especially loved reading about the relationship between Roy and his Biological. Lots to think about with this one. Halfway through it I called a friend and told her she had to read it. Some books have you thinking about them long after you have finished them. I think An American Marriage will be that for me. This book also talked about uniquely American issues that aren't written about much. We need more books like this one.
