bookishbrighton's review against another edition
4.0
An absolutely must read - this should be on the syllabus/reading list for all secondary schools. Clearly a heartbreaking story that is at times extremely difficult to read, but it is exquisitely written. If it wasn’t for the subject matter and story itself I would’t have been able to put it down. A remarkable book.

Life is dear to every living thing; the worm that crawls upon the ground will struggle for it.

This book should be required reading for schools just like Diary of a Girl by Anne Frank. People need to read first hand what it is like being a slave. We have an idea of what it is but reading first hand what was done to Solomon is atrocious. It might help give people an idea of how deeply rooted racism is in our country, especially the south and how it is still relevant today.
