I never knew I could be so happy with a novel. This book is a marvelous read. I think I managed to fall madly in love with Milkman - which may sound weird LOL. I've learned so much from reading this novel. Morrison has inspired me to discover more about my history and my people. I truly fell in love with the novel when Morrison delved more into the history of flying Africans. I must find a book about that so I can be more informed about that part of African history.

A beautifully written novel about an amazing African American family...I recommend this book to everyone! This book belongs on every African American's list of books to read - you must read this book and discover the significance of knowing oneself.

I wish I could write more about it, but I'm still in shock...I'm still in love...I'm still trying to work out what exactly the book means to me, and if there's more to what I need to learn. I'll be reading this one again soon.
