James by Percival Everett

challenging emotional fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.25

Such an intense read, from a perspective vastly more important than Huck Finn’s. I’m glad the author chose to write this and give Jim (James) a voice.
