Jazz is the most beautiful poetry. Toni Morrison's mind is wild. The way she describes love, lust, longing, desire, and death is unmatched.

It's always interesting to reread a book and see the notes you took & highlighted the first time around. What seemed important (and why), then vs what does now.

I will tell anyone who listens, Jazz is one of my favorite books of all time. It might be time to re-read.
I’m reading “Jazz” by Toni Morrison for the first time. And I feel like more people should rave about this book, too. The characters are insane and the plot is truly diabolical. Like omg. 😩 Chaos with beautiful prose. 😭.
