Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin
5.0
I'm embarrassed to admit that "Giovanni's Room" had been on my "to-be-read" list for many years before I finally decided to pick it up, and let me tell you, everything that people say about this book is true.
There are countless reasons why I love this book so much that I read it back-to-back twice to truly let the story sit with me. Not only does James Baldwin have a way of using few words to deliver a powerful impact, but he also delves deep into powerful topics such as love, identity, and the overall human condition.
This timeless classic speaks to universal experiences of longing, desire, and self-discovery. It's truly a book that will linger in my mind for years to come. Definitely pick this one up if you're like me and sometimes crave a story that provides depth and beauty beyond the pages. I absolutely plan to read more of James Baldwin's works, and this time I won't wait as long.
