I couldn't put it down. So well written and the characters were developed. I love that's she gave a resolution. I will be recommending this to everyone. Love that it is inspired by the author learning about Mary Lumpkin and that she paid homage to former slaves.
Very accurate account of history of what it must have been to be a black woman.
In the early 1900s. The lead character is a heroine, a mother, a friend, a lover and someone whom i's trapped.
She is a great inspiration to all women of all ages of all times.
Great read, Phoebe was a very strong woman who endured so much especially on behalf of her children. I hate that she never got be with the true love of her life but her sacrifice was worth it.
Another one of my all time favorite novels. Fiction mixed with historical truths of slavery, the slave trade, surival & motherhood. An absolute treasure.
