I'm really glad that I read this book, as I appreciate the overview of American history through a lens of how it affected the poor and marginalized. It was a dense book, full of information; I had to borrow it from the library 4 or 5 times to finish it.
I loved this book. I loved Amina, the protagonist, an irreverent pirate and a complex character. Looking forward to the rest of the trilogy. The audiobook was excellent.
