I almost don't even know what to say. I couldn't put this book down once I started and I doubt that it'll leave me for a while. The story of pain and struggle and love and family. Celie is such a powerful voice and she has so much life and love in her, even when she thinks it's all been beaten out of her. Even when it's tough to read, you have to know more about Celie. You are compelled to hear more from her.
