Status Updates From The Bluest Eye

“Misery colored by greens and blues in my mother’s voice took all of the grief out of the words and left me with a conviction that pain was not only endurable, it was sweet.”

pt 2.
i liked the three girls pecola was with, and how it was juxtaposed later on.
i feel bad for the claudia and her sister and it opens up some past wounds for me, wanting to be beautiful and have the same privilege maurice had.
it sucks that this type of privilege exists and it is very sorrowful knowing you could do nothing to change it :(
so many great lines and descriptions by morrison, cant wait for more

was a little while ago when i last read, but now i feel the effects of the novel more than ever.
morrisons storytelling is great and hilarious, and can be deeply deciphered which is great and makes for a great time.
i really wanted to like maurice or wtv, but i still feel like the characters could’ve gotten along more. if clauida and her sister didn’t push it too much. maybe im missing the point

heartbreaking . it takes courage to even pick it up again and keep reading , but i feel like it’s important to read . the immense discomfort and misery i feel when i think about pecola feels very important
