Powerful and difficult and incredibly important. The characters will stay with me for a long time to come. Highly recommend! I have so many thoughts about how the book recognizes and upholds our collective responsibility to the ancestors, whether they are our blood kin or not.

Happy Birthday to the late bell hooks. I personally think part two of the trilogy was much better than part one.

I’m super glad that @LambdaLiterary removed Lauren Hough from contention but I’m going to be shocked and miffed forever that Robert Jones Jr’s The Prophets was snubbed for gay fiction. A brilliant, game changing piece of writing about gay Black men in love during slavery.

Every time I finish this book I am so pissed off because I love these kids so much and I want them to go on forever. Been blessed with ten years of Long Division. As I get older, I get a little smarter and I see more and more how brilliant this book is.
