Oroonoko by Aphra Behn
4.0

Fascinating read. Very quick and easy, which surprised me a bit in spite of its brevity, given when it was written, but apparently it only took Behn a few hours to write so perhaps that makes sense. I would have actually loved for her to have spend a lot longer and made a much longer book out of this, exploring some events in more detail, but even in this form it's very impactful and memorable - especially the graphic depictions at the tale's conclusion.
