patlo 's review for:

Beloved by Toni Morrison
4.25
challenging dark informative tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated

Powerful story, amazing writing, incredibly difficult to read due to the dark reality of slavery and its trauma.

This is a book that needs separate ratings for “how good it is” (easy 5*) vs “how did I enjoy my time in the book (2*?)”
