the fighting about wanting to be pregnant while touring to the epilogue being pregnant on tour is giving zero character growth. this couple is ridiculously codependent and should’ve broken up for a REAL reason and stayed broken up.

This book was really well written, obviously it’s by toni morrison. but truthfully it’s a bit of a mind fuck. i still don’t know how i feel about the ending. it is very interesting how pecola reacts to getting blue eyes, and how she interacts with herself afterward. how did she get blue eyes? i think it’s a metaphor for black beauty not being recognized until conforming to white standards, but i need to think about it more.
