Behold the Dreamers | Imbolo Mbue
post image
Pickpick

"Behold the Dreamers" is an incredible read. Imbolo Mbue does a brilliant job telling this story of immigrants and their struggles with the justice system in America, yet remain how grateful they remain for their opportunities.

I love this. It really brought Judaism full circle for me. I read it two times in a row, and it gave me all the feels, and helped me find amazing topics for discussion with my Rabbi.

This was my first book club read many moons ago, and I fell in love with reading all over again. I saw there is a movie coming out, so I gave it a re-read. I loved it just as much this time if not more, but not thrilled about the upcoming film.

Have any of you seen the movie trailer? What do you think about it?

Julsmarshall I can‘t wait! I love Cate Blanchett and think she‘ll be amazing! 6y

Working on this read right now.
Any one else reading this now? If so, what do you think so far?
I love Tom Hanks, and was quite excited about this book. I had a friend tell me she thought it was "fine" but ultimately stopped reading it. I've been picking up other books in between short stories. Maybe I'll be finished by the end of 2020! Perhaps I'll try audible???

tessavi Welcome! Hope you'll like Litsy as much as I do 😊 6y
TheBookgeekFrau It was Ok. Grazing through it between other books is probably the best way to read it. But don't sweat it if you don't finish, you wouldn't be missing much 6y
SheReadsAndWrites I have heard it is good on audible. I have it I just haven't gotten to it yet...😬 6y

“Who you are is defined by what you're willing to struggle for.”

F*ck is a frequently used word for me, and a good friend bought this for me because of the title as a gag gift. It is an interesting read. Manson's philosophies are curious and "helpful", and the stories within are entertaining. Some parts were a little slow, but overall message seems well intended, and something people should be conscience of. I enjoyed it, and do recommend*.

caraltmcbride *Recommend: I see value in Manson's message, and appreciate the idea of his steps being more personalized. However, at times it seemed that he wanted to tell these cool stories, but doesn't really know how to tie it into his message but does it anyway. Regardless, I give this book a B-. 6y
