A review by henrytinker
Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin

dark emotional sad slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
Not for me, but I think it's just personal taste so I didn't give it a rating. I understand why this book is important, but I just hated everyone in it so it was hard to care about anything that happened.
