  • one of the best books i've read

    Would Recommend
    Rian R. - 5 months ago

    there were all kinds of strange and shocking scenes in this book but what disturbed me the most was the fact that it is based on a true story (minus the supernatural elements..). i honestly think this book should be taught in school while learning about slavery and the aftermath of slavery in the US. such a good book!!!!!!

  • Disturbing

    DONNA L. - 3 years 11 months ago

    Too graphic. Very unsettling for me. It does portray the cruelty slaves experienced.

    Julie S. - 5 years ago

    I had high expectations of this book- given all the positive press and Nobel prize. Instead, I found it very difficult to read emotionally, as well as productively. The story itself is heartbreaking, but the writing style left me frustrated and confused, often rereading for understanding. I finally just plowed through it just to get done!

  • Classic

    Lucy Y. - 5 years 4 months ago

    I reread this and loved it again. The situations the characters experience are very painful but there is a glimmer of hope.

  • Wow

    This book is so.... Weird? I got the chance to read it in high school, just before it became a banned book and I loved it. It is such a great read. #BannedBook
