A review by emmareadstoomuch
The Color Purple by Alice Walker

5.0

Gotta tell you, I don't really know what to say.

They say there's a first time for everything but I, as a member of the never shuts up community, doubted this day would ever come.

So I will keep this quick!

Lately I've had a hard time feeling books - as in actually have them impact me emotionally - so I've read increasingly crazy lit fic to attempt to undo it.

This just shattered all of that and fixed it no problem. I teared up.

I'm not ashamed, even if this wrecks my badass image. This book is emotive and touching and I care about the characters so, so much.

But enough yearning on main.

Bottom line: A book so good it broke me!
