This book took me a bit to get into. I have read Morrison before and I enjoy her writing style but this one I just couldn't get into the characters and got confused by the back and forth time line.
Once I hit the second section of the book I started to enjoy the story more, as the confusion was explain and we had some fun lyrical writing.
After just coming off of reading a non-fiction book about slavery it was interesting to read a story with characters depicting the heart breaking, devastating, and unethical experiences of slavery even after the Civil War.
