A review by tjalexandernyc
The Davenports by Krystal Marquis
A really enjoyable ensemble historical. The book has four main characters, all Black women living in early 20th century Chicago, that take turns at the narrative. This gives us several points of view: different social classes, different desires, different romances. It's skillfully done, and I appreciated the variety of voices. Plus the 1910s is often an overlooked period in historicals, so I was happy to see it.
