Now THIS is a book! I will review it later but I highly recommend this book to anyone that loves historical fiction or African American literature.

3.0
Historical fiction isn’t really my thing but since thisthis had a good rating, I tried it. And overall it was okay, hence three stars (on my rating scale, 3 is decent). The writing was good, it was easy to follow the jumps between characters, and I did want to find out how it ended, but after all the drama, the ending was tied up way too quickly and neatly.

Good story line! However the ending was disappointing and felt rushed. Left a lot of unanswered questions.
