Great book. Best.Book.Ever.

Affecting and poignant. I knew nothing about this book except it was a “classic.” It took a few chapters but soon I was captivated by the story of Francie, growing up part of a poor Brooklyn family. It feels real and authentic. I didn’t expect to like this book but its writing got under my skin and I didn’t want it to end. There are a few of-a-time racist stereotypes that shouldn’t distract from the thread but be aware they are there.

Timeless. Must reread. stands the test of time. Contemporary and relevant

Disgusting. The way blacks, native Americans and Jews are depicted in this book is horrible, disgusting and it is incomprehensible that the children in the book would do and say such libelous things and never get reprimanded or scolded; I can’t tolerate it in anything I read or see on tv. It should be banned from younger readers reading lists for this reason. If I had children, I wouldn’t want them to know that Irish catholic people thought negatively and harshly about blacks, native Americans, Jews and poor immigrants.

What a wonderful book. A true American classic.
