It was short with sweet twists and turns.
I really liked the way the characters were described.
Noticeable that a man wrote a female character but all the same a likeable heroine.
I did not feel that attachment to the characters which can happen with short books.
The focus on racism was not the main picture, but the pain of slavery was mentioned.
