The Water Dancer by Ta-Nehisi Coates | Book Review [November 2019 BoTM]

This is my book review for The Water Dancer by Ta-Nahisi Coates which was my November, 2019, pick with Book of The Month. This was my first book from Book of The Month and I loved it! Watch to find out why. UPDATE 1/12: I've been saying Hiram's name COMPLETELY wrong. It's pronounced High-Rum. And I feel so dumb because I actually know someone named Hiram. That was a lazy error on my part and I promise to do better going forward.

To sell a child right from under his mother, you must know that mother only in the thinnest way possible." (83) "That boy May was mourned in death more than he was loved in life..." (90) "There was no peace in slavery, for every day under the rule of another is a day of war." (130) "Power makes slaves of masters, for it cuts them away from the world they claim to comprehend." (153) "This is war. Soldiers fight in war for all kinds of reasons, but they die because they cannot bear to live in the world as it is." (268) "Naw, I prefer this season of loss, this season of dying, for I think is the world at its most true." (308) These were just SOME of the quotes I loved.
