I feel like it’s always a bit of an adjustment getting used to no quotation marks, but before too long, I adjust. I read several articles a few years ago trying to figure out why writers made that choice and reasons were all over the place. Evidently it’s more common from European authors, another author said he did it because he wanted readers to put their own interpretation on what exactly was said and what was thought. I still tend to think it’s a little lazy.

Of the two, I liked Homegoing better, but her terrific writing shines in both.

It’s different, but I highly recommend it.

SO good!
