Less than 100 pages to go! I’m almost finished with part 2 and I am so confused. Morrison has taken a more experimental approach to her storytelling here compared to the first part, and it requires all my attention, which I sometimes don’t have 🤷🏼‍♀️ I can’t wait to finish it though and see how it will all wrap up. Fingers crossed I’ll be done with Beloved by the end of May, because I’m ready to read all the queer books in June! #bookstagram #beloved #tonimorrison #tonimorrisonbeloved #read #readblackauthors #classics #classicliterature #classiclit https://www.instagram.com/p/CPa8ukzLAh0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Do you have something as a “night book”? Beloved is a night book for me. At night, all distractions turned off and everyone already in bed, was the only time I could concentrate on the rich writing and complicated timeline of this remarkable novel. It’s not for casual reading. At least the beginning wasn’t. It took me good few days to get through the first 50 pages, I had to consult SparkNotes to make sense of what was going on, but, boy oh boy, was it worth it! Page 70 and Beloved became my all-day book, I can’t stop myself from thinking about it all the time and being completely enamoured. Sometimes I read so fast that I absorb the story, but not the writing, so I go back and reread certain sections to get the full effect of this book. It’s just incredible, I can’t wait to read more tonight. Have you read Beloved?

@bookriot #Riotgrams Day 2 - One Word Titles The book that has most deeply influenced my adult reading life is Toni Morrison's BELOVED, because its powerful prose was unlike anything I had ever read before. I don't think I've recovered even after so many years. If I were to buy a @foliosociety book, the first one would be this book 📚❤👻 #books #read #reading #bookish #booklover #bibliophile #onewordtitle #beloved #tonimorrison #tonimorrisonbeloved #firstedition #bookstagram #booksofinstagram
