A review by hannahelaine
Indigo by Beverly Jenkins

Did not finish book. Stopped at 51%.
Ok you can deffo tell that this was written in the 90s. There’s some fatphobia ofc but mostly it’s the stalking and inability of a man to accept a woman saying no to him. . BROKE INTO HER HOUSE AND BEDROOM AND WATCHED HER SLEEP IN IT AND LEFT A ROSE NEXT TO HER???
I wish it weren’t this way bc the premise is cool and interesting and I have genuinely learned a lot about the Underground Railroad and abolitionist movement I never heard about in school and it’s a good thing to learn about. But man. The romance in this is treacherous.
