Sing, Unburied, Sing

This is not my genre, my girlfriend, who never rates books, told me this was 5/5 for her. She has different tastes in books than me. I am more hard sci-fi or science-related non-fiction. She appreciates the fiction that takes place early or pre 1900's and has to do with drugs or has a spiritual bend to it. This book covers all over her pre-requisites.

I will say I appreciated the story. It's about a family dealing with death, drugs, vague spiritual powers that they don't really discuss, prison, being black in the early 1900s (?). I like that they jumped perspective a lot. The son, the mom, the spirits, the grandparents.

That said I tended to skim some parts that got a bit confusing. Multiple characters talk at once, but only one character can hear one of them and also the dialect and accents are hard to read but I believe that is just period appropriate.

I would recommend this book, especially if this is the genre you gravitate towards.
