I nominate The Book of Night Women by Marlon James
I second The Book of Night Women lol. Also, Annie John by Jamaica Kinkaid.
Here Comes the Sun by Nicole Y. Dennis-Benn
How about an oldie but a goodie: A High Wind in Jamaica by Richard Hughes. It’s expensive in amazon, but I bet almost every library has it, and I’m seeing free download PDFs and a pdf in The Open Library.

My FAVORITE Caribbean book!
Land of Love and Drowning by Tiphanie Yanique
I am going to nominate Augustown by Kei Miller. As an aside, this June group read is looking to be great whichever book is chosen.
The Book of Night Women. Breath, Eyes, Memory
