An American Marriage by Tayari Jones
If you haven’t read An American Marriage yet, I honestly don’t know what the fuck you’ve been up to the last two years. There is a reason it was one of the biggest books of the last decade, it’s just THAT GOOD. It’s the story of a pair of newlyweds who undergo typical marriage issues until one day they are faced with the greatest relationship obstacle imaginable when the husband is accused of a crime he did not commit. This is the story of love, loyalty and race. I urge you to read this book if you haven’t already.
