The Yellow House by Sarah M. Broom
4.0
I have been buying lately, rather than borrowing books from the library. Pandemic and all.
But I waited in a long hold line to get this one from the library, and when it came, I realized it was not nonfiction.
Nonetheless, I read it, and actually liked it a lot. It is a Black author and about New Orleans, and it is novel-like. A thorough--if not slightly embarrassingly obsessive--history of a family, as told by the youngest.
I may pick this one up for the perm collection.
