Top 100 Novels Book Club- September Pick: The Bluest Eye

2 down, 98 to go :) Our September pick will be The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison. Look forward to seeing you all there!

Synopsis: In Morrison’s acclaimed first novel, Pecola Breedlove—an 11-year-old Black girl in an America whose love for its blond, blue-eyed children can devastate all others—prays for her eyes to turn blue: so that she will be beautiful, so that people will look at her, so that her world will be different. This is the story of the nightmare at the heart of her yearning, and the tragedy of its fulfillment.
