Colored Television

3.5 rounded up, I have enjoyed all of Danzy Senna's novels very much, and really enjoyed parts of Colored Television, but at times it got a little slow and repetitive almost. I think Senna may have been trying to build tension, but but there was already enough there, I was anxious about things, and wanted to know what was going to happen!! It was almost too much and I didn't want to wait! Or maybe it just got repetitive... <> Aside from that it was an enjoyable read/listen (you know me and audiobooks), and there were some truly “laugh out loud” moments where my partner would walk into whatever room I was in and look around wondering who I was talking to or if I was truly going mad, because I was laughing and commenting to myself. I'd suggest this to anyone who seeks insight (obviously not everyone's experience and some may see it as “overtly overblown” in some ways, but no one can speak for everyone) into the world of those who identify as mixed or whose racial identity is not as obvious on the surface.
