Rated Washington Black 8/10

A wonderfully-written adventure. Washington, the titular protagonist, is a boy born into slavery on a plantation in Barbados whose life takes a sudden turn when he becomes the assistant to an eccentric explorer. It loses some structure in the late going but it's engagingly readable the whole way through.

Rated A Fraction of the Whole 10/10

<div>Overall I enjoyed this, some of the reviews made me think it would be needlessly complicated but that isn't the vibe I got. My biggest qualm was the epilogue which felt awkward.&nbsp;<br><br>The story itself was weird and interesting and I thought tried some interesting things.&nbsp;</div>
