Wow. I did not want this story to end. To be one of the first black women able to own real estate after slavery and being a free woman? That is astounding. I loved the writing and the flow of this book. It makes me want to do a little more research on the woman herself. It's just mind boggling about how many black hidden figures there are and how their stories are just coming to surface in this country. This was such a great fictional account of a real person. This was the perfect read to round out black history month and also close to women's history month. This was such a great and inspirational story.

I received a copy of the book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving an honest review
