Beloved



I have been dying to read this book. Last week I spent my lunch hour at Book Nook on Herndon and First and browsed their used books for goodies. And I was fortunate enough to find this gem.

Toni Morrison is such an amazing, talented and gentle writer. She writes with such tenderness that her sentences make my heart ache, a good ache, an ache of love. I wish I could somehow capture her technique and write with her keystrokes, but still like myself of course.

This is my fun read. The book I read in between reading Powell's 25 Books to Read Before You Die. I really just read everything I can. I am also re-reading Stephen King's "On Writing", which is essential for writers.

I will review this book once I am done. So stay tuned in the American Writers tab for this beauty.

Happy Reading!
