Weekend Review

Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward
4 stars



There is really not much left to be said about this novel that has not already been said.  Following a family in Southern Mississippi, seen through the eyes of thirteen year old Jojo, his mother Leonie, and the ghost of of a boy that was in prison with Jojo’s grandfather.  This is a bleak, honest, beautifully written novel about family, race and injustice.  While there were parts that I was not as invested, overall, this is a family that will stay with me.  I received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
