This books is immaculately written. It is an important piece of American literature. It is about slavery so the point is not to enjoy the book. That being said, I did not find this book very enjoyable. One of the main characters I found very frustrating, because her actions and words don't always match. She is based on a real person so this isn't a short coming of the author. However, I found this book difficult to finish when half the perspective of the novel was a frustrating character and the pacing was slow. This book is very important to American literature, and it was not the most enjoyable read. It is both at the same time.

Such a great listen. Loved the characters and the story. Sweet at times and heartbreaking at other times. Based on a real woman who actually lived, which always gets 10 bonus points in my book. Really enjoyed this one.
