Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston
3.0

This read is one of my November book club picks and it’s a classic book that I was drawn to from @greatamericanreadpbs . It’s a gripping and timely story of one black woman’s struggles through three marriages and a lifetime of overcoming tragedy and pain. I enjoyed the dialect and authentic language. I found the last part of the story to be the most attention grabbing for me. Written in 1937, if you’re looking for a timeline of African American Fiction, I would say this should definitely be on your list.
