So fun so far! I love the fast paced dialogue, very different from what I have read by Toni Morrison so far

cant put it down. morrison writes like a strange dream that is so familiar in a way i’ve never seen before

This has been such a crazy book, and such a realistic book. The characters have so much detail and life to them it's hard to think that they're just characters and not a person with a life and a background and friends and enemies. Everyone is so 3-dimensional it's insane. Lots of run on sentences though

“He looked at her face in the mirror and was reminded of days at sea when water looked like sky. She surveyed his body and thought of oranges, playing jacks, and casks of green wine. He was still life, babies, cut glass, indigo, hand spears, dew, cadmium yellow, Hansa red, moss green and the recollection of a tree that wanted to dance with her."

oh my GOD chapters 7 and 8 were GORGEOUS!! completely breathtaking!!!
