My first foray into the world of Toni Morrison is probably her most known work, Beloved.
The book tells the story of the African-American experience both during and immediately after the end of slavery. It’s fictional, but just like in Things Fall Apart this story could have been written about a real family or group of slaves because it describes events and circumstances we are all aware of. So take a few minutes to see what I thought of this timeless classic and let me know what you thought!
The book satisfied the requirement to read a book written by a woman for my 2017 Reading Challenge and is also one of Amazon’s 100 Books Everyone Should Read. This was the fourth book I’ve read from my challenge.
I love this book for me so moving and I learnt so much.

Did you think she was a ghost from the beginning?

No, I don’t think I did. But it’s a while since I read it and found it quite haunting.
