Love Songs of WEB du Bois. Could not put it down. @BlkLibraryGirl is brilliant. My book group really liked it too.

The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois by @BlkLibraryGirl!! It’s a masterpiece!! 👏🏽👏🏽

Min Jin Lee's Pachinko immediately came to mind, but since you've already read it, how about The Love Songs of W.E.B. DuBois by Honore Fannone Jeffers?

Epic…. I was just enraptured by the lineage and the story of this modern African-American family…. A combination of historical and modern story—I’ve never read anything quite like it. It just consumed me.

If you read one book this year, choose this one. I went to bed thinking of Ailey Pearl Garfield and woke up thinking of her. With the arrival of this epic novel of family, race, and ancestral legacy, one of America's finest poets has announced herself as a storyteller of the highest magnitude. Absolutely brilliant.

With The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois, Jeffers has created an opus, an indelible entry to the canon of contemporary American literature and one of the foundational fictional texts of Black literature worthy of sitting alongside Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man, Toni Morrison’s The Bluest Eye and Jesmyn Ward’s Sing, Unburied, Sing
