5.0

This is one of the most beautiful books I’ve ever read. It’s a shame that it takes 200 pgs for it to finally click, but when it does, you begin to realize why Toni Morrison is as revered as she is in literature circles. I haven’t cried in quite a long time and this book nearly brought me to tears. Paul D. was my favorite character.
