How to Slowly Kill Yourself and Others in America: Essays by Kiese Laymon

emotional informative reflective sad fast-paced

4.5

This is my first Kiese Laymon book and it did not disappoint. I learned about racism. About women. About other books to read. About how to better raise children. About Black experience in America. The list does not end. 

New fan of Laymon - this will not be my last. His essays were poignant, insightful, and honest. 

At only 158 pages, there’s no reason not to read this book.
