Fabulous read! This should be a movie!
A story told incredibly well! This has a lot of heart and soul in it. It’s very easy to get involved with the storyline and each of the characters. Wonderfully orchestrated from beginning to end.
Yes! I would love to see this on the big screen!

An incredible and empowering story!
I listened to this audio as I read along, and this book was hard to put down. The characters were portrayed from a well-rounded perspective, which really humanized the common experience in family systems and generational trauma. This story touched my mother wound in such a warm light, reminding me that healing generationally takes gratitude, reflection & communication. I feel very represented as far as my familial life experience, as if I was hearing this story from my kin.

A great read
Loved how the story developed revealing inter generational pain and healing. Following Drunella’s life is a peek into history through a black woman’s eyes and very enlightening! Delightful book
