Twisted: The Tangled History of Black Hair Culture by Emma Dabiri

hopeful informative medium-paced

3.75

I enjoyed this look at how hair fits into culture and can be an art form or non-verbal language, but I liked it more when I was reading the book for myself. While I enjoyed listening to Dabiri's narration, I found it difficult while listening to determine where quotes ended or to differentiate the notes from the main body of the text. (I ended up getting an ebook copy to read along while listening to avoid confusion, and that is not my preferred method for audiobooks.) I think I would have gotten more out of the book had I just picked up the print version instead of initially getting just the audio.
