The characters were very easy to love and get invested in. I loved the setting Marquis used and how she highlighted the successes of African-Americans in a time period where it was often not spoken about. We got to see the characters grow and love and get invested in their growth. Only things that took me out were that the stakes were kinda low and the pacing at times uneven, but all in all very enjoyable! Her authors note really brought the whole story together for me and gave me a greater appreciation for it.
