4.5

Each chapter of this book focuses on another family member and it spans generations. I don't know if this has been done before, but either way I was deeply impressed. The way Gyasi manages to portray so many different aspects of history and also how seamlessly she did it should really be applauded. And every chapter is interesting! Obviously you're probably going to prefer certain characters over others and find certain settings more interesting than others, but still, this book grips you until the end.
