Ring Shout by P. Djèlí Clark

5.0

WOW. This was so well-written and had me anxiously awaiting what happened next! This novella could easily be adapted into a Peele movie - in fact, I think that would be an amazing collaboration. The monsters in this book were so creepy and the blurred lines of real historic events and horrifying fantastical elements was SO interesting. This book needs to be taught in high schools across North America- maybe instead of reading ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’, students can read ‘Ring Shout’ and be captivated and horrified at the same time.

LOVED this. Definitely going to check out more of his work. 5/5!
