Took some time reflecting and when I described a certain scene to my partner, I cried. Great book.
I don't know what I was expecting, but this was quicker and more shallow than I expected. I had already heard about this story on a podcast so perhaps that made this experience a little less moving. Also, I was expecting a bit more twist from the author of Underground Railroad to make the story his own. I do like that he brought more light on the subject and respect his decision to stay truer to the survivor's stories.
I need time to write and collect my thoughts. Know that this was a magnificent read.
Eventually I'll write a proper review. But please read this. It's akin to cracking open your mind and filling it with a different view on the universe.
