I couldn't put it down!

Unique voices. I enjoyed reading in the old Patuwa . Story was well told in all its brutality and violence.

I loved this book. It was hard to put down, enlightening beyond my imagination. I highly recommend it.

The Book of Night Women is a look at the consequences of slavery. Both to the enslaved and the planters. The cost is heavy. Marlon James is best known for his provocative writing and nuanced characters. This one is no different. His aim is to honor the female slaves in Jamaica. And he does honor their voice which has been so often overlooked.

This story will stay with me for the rest of my life.

This was a great book . Listen to the audio book . Very evil , painful , loving and more .

This book deals with the misery of slavery and how they dealt with all the pain, worries, trials and all tribulation. I didn't want o read this book at first because I know it would bring up a lot of hurtful things about my race but I'm glad I finally read it. It's enlightening and well written.

Let me first start by saying I don't read books on slavery (fiction or non fiction). The intro is what caught me and I continued. I loved the main character and hated her. I cried when she wouldn't and screamed when she couldn't. I can't wait to sit with others and discuss this book.

This book captures your attention and I could not put it down. There is no question it is a disturbing story but one that I feel needs to be told.

A very moving and interesting story.
