An American Marriage was such an emotionally stirring read that reflects a much bigger societal issue that still threatens ethnic minorities, particularly in the deep South of the United states. I felt very moved by this book and would encourage all to read it.

I loved the writing which seems to take on several different styles, e.g. epistolary, POV, monologue, etc.. and as I listened to the audiobook it made the experience feel more authentic as I listened to the vernacular and other cultural references that personified these characters.
