123chinadoll 's review for:

An American Marriage by Tayari Jones
4.0

Audiobook version.
I really give this book 3.75, so I rounded up to a 4. I loved the writing it was just so poetic and beautiful. The writing helped you fall in love with everyone, it was filled with so much emotion. Some parts I felt was dragged out I felt there were times I just wanted them to get to the point, but I loved the show of love. I think Roy played a lot of games until it got real then it got real for him. I think he was selfish and he got to feel what it is like being with someone that was selfish or just think about themselves. Andrew, I wish they went more into the why, why the wait, why now, like if he would have stepped in while Roy was playing games so be it but not at that moment. Celestial I think she truly didn't know what love was, I don't think they were able to really get roots to grow. Idk I have so many emotions but I like that make you think.
