If Beale Street Could Talk by James Baldwin
4.5
challenging dark emotional hopeful sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I can’t believe I read this book the same month I read Chain-Gang All-Stars and Are Prisons Obsolete? But it’s a perfect addition and I won’t be forgetting about Tish and Fonny any time soon. Also that ending?? 

Anyway, Baldwin is rapidly becoming a favorite author of mine and I’m excited to dive more into his work.
