Beloved by Toni Morrison
5.0
My 5th Morrison as I chip away at them in publication order. To say this is brilliant is an understatement. So heartbreaking to watch the enslaved people go to hell and back, lose everything, afraid to love too deeply in case it’s snatched away from them by the whims of white men. The characters were all amazingly fleshed out, even secondary characters had something memorable about them so despite the brutality of the content, I enjoyed reading them whether they were likeable or not.
