Family Lore

Elizabeth Acevedo never disappoints me with her writing. I love the complexity of her characters and how real they always feel, and this book was no different. Being of Afro-Carribean descent myself, I always feel a connection to books following characters of similar backgrounds, despite the family being from a different island than my family is. I felt connected to the women that we follow in so many ways and it definitely elevated the reading experience for me. Elizabeth's writing is so lyrical and reads like poetry. This book reminded me of how much I love her books, and I'm excited to read anything she writes in the future.






Thank you to Ecco and NetGalley for providing me with an eBook copy to review.
