Gloria Naylor pulls no punches. This is a gut-wrenching, disturbing, and heartbreaking novel-in-stories focused on several residents in an affluent African-American enclave in an unnamed city. I can‘t say the reading experience was pleasant, but I‘m glad I read it. #readblackwomen #BlackHistoryMonth
This ending is making me so nervous. Even though I read ahead and knows what is going to happen, the getting there is problem.

Spend all day in the house watching YouTube and reading. Now I'm trying not to sign up for all of the cool swaps going on but it's hard.
It's had become somewhat of a tradition for me to start the year off by reading a Gloria Naylor novel. If she's not the first book I pick up, she's at least the second.
The music in his laughter had a way of rounding off the missing notes in her soul.
pickAfter hearing about the death of Gloria Naylor, I reflected back to this book. This book explores the internal prejudices that black people sometimes have towards one another. I read it many, many years ago but it resonates deeply. RIP Gloria Naylor.
