I really enjoyed this book. I love books that go back and forth between the past and the present, and I love historical fiction. Some of the retelling of the enslaved family members really broke my heart, but It was needed to connect the readers to the main character's family's love of their heirloom.

A dramatic family story that spans mulit generations. Wilkerson's detailed and descriptive writing vividly brings to life each character. While a tragic story is the main theme line, the story wraps up beautifully satisfying.

I loved this book!!! The storytelling is spectacular. The details of the story seamlessly woven like a spectacular tapestry. Rich content, wonderfully complex characters and a beautiful story of resilience and perseverence.

It's so interesting to read about Black people up North and the survival/thriving stories after enslavement. I liked this. The time switching was hard.
