Wild Women and the Blues by Denny S. Bryce

3.0

This story is told in the past and present format between two different characters and to be frank, I couldn’t care less about Sawyer. He was just a flat character with little dimension and I sped through his sections to get back to Honoree.

The book was well-researched but there was so much packed into a little space. Constant plot twists cheapens the reaction to the point where I was easily predicting what came next. It was one of those stories where you go, “seriously, how much trauma can one person endure before they just got absolutely insane?”. I would have much more preferred to just focus on Honoree and not Ezekiel or Bessie or Jeremiah. It was no longer her story, but rather she played a background character in everyone else’s choices.
