Honestly, I went into this book not knowing much about it since I had to read it for school but I truly enjoyed it. Zora's writing style is beautiful and the way she builds a strong main character. Zora shows us everything in Janie's (main character) life that led for her to become the woman she is and how our experiences affect our development.
