Transcendent Kingdom by Yaa Gyasi

beautiful. a woman struggles through her own grief after losing her brother to addiction, as she navigates through her complicated feelings about christianity. it’s so well written…i was highlighting passages all over the place. most of my reading now takes place in the wee hours of the night nursing my son…that connection to this story was not lost on me and added some poignance, i have to say. felt a taddddd slow in the back half but this was just so good.
