I just finished reading Giovanni's Room and I'm at a loss. Wow! Such a powerful novel about the devastating consequences of love. James Baldwin is such an efficient writer, he always seemed to convey exactly what the scene needed and no more. I loved how nuanced his characterizations were. Though all of them were incredibly flawed you really couldn't stop yourself from sympathizing. It's a quick read that I had considered only because it would be an easy addition for my reading challenge but instead became a book I'll revist many times. A classic. I'd recommend it to anyone I'd meet. If you haven't read it ,READ IT! If you have feel free to share your thoughts on it below. I'm just in such a mood to talk about it and hear /share opinions.
