Blood at the Root

Blood At The Root literally had me held against my will for days, the post book hangover was real. The best thing about this book was the culture, representation, and the way the author didn’t lose his voice in the process. As a Social Worker, I was especially interested in seeing how Malik, a young black male who ended up in the system, would respond to his adversities. And I think the author did that part of the story justice. Malik was strong willed, protective, but also cautious with the way he moved. Without giving anything away, I was blown away with the complexity of the story, the vivid and intricate details, and the plot twists and suspense - it all came together beautifully. I can wholeheartedly say this was one of my favorite reads this year. I am packing up and headed to Caiman University, I just want to experience the richness of the campus and see the student life. I cannot wait for my hardcover to come in the mail!
