This book was very good. It grabbed me right away with the story and the characters. It made me angry reading about the racism and hatred. I loved the characters and the plot twists. Very good read, and might be my favorite of book club this year!
I would rate it 3.5. It is 4:30am and I have to be up at 8 for work at 9...oops. Once I got past the slump of the first half, it became impossible to put the book down. The emotions were very raw, and I felt them both in present and past narratives. However, I want to jump into the story and scream that SO MUCH OF THE DRAMA could've been avoided with PROPER COMMUNICATION!! It is unbearably frustrating and SO heartbreaking. Wow. This book is entirely heartbreaking and it was mostly due to just a lack of communication. Quiet a shame, honestly.
