Mustard Seed
by Laila Ibrahim
Mustard Seed by Laila Ibrahim is a free NetGalley ebook that I read in late November.
Even though Mustard Seed is told through Lisbeth and Jordan, the audience surrogates are clearly Lisbeth's children - Sadie and Sammy - since they're questionsome and extremely pervasive about what they see, hear, and learn when they spend time at their grandparents' plantation in Virginia after the end of the Civil War (namely very blatant racism, mild to moderate sexism, and fervent Southern etiquette contrary to their abolitionist/free-thinking upbringing).
