This is a unique take on Huck Finn and Big Jim’s life and what happened next. It is from Jim’s aka James’s point of view. It is beautifully written and shines a light on the pain and humiliation that enslaved people felt. The humanity they had to hide from the enslavers. White people felt better about slavery by thinking African Americans were savages or as low as animals. They kept them from learning to read so they can pretend they were stupid. It was a cruel world and their ancestors are trying to hide it from the history books.

I enjoyed this book very much. It had interesting facts and history along with an enjoyable future fantasy much like Jurassic Park.

This book blew me away. I had read many of her other books but this wraps up all aspects.

It was interesting but dark. I found the narrator’s voice grating. The story is pretty depressing.

America the great and the painful. This book takes place in a small PA. Town in the post WWI era when new immigrants were flowing into the states competing for jobs with the Black Americans and lower class White Americans. This story shows the absurdity and harm of prejudices. It shows humanity in dark times. This is a complicated and often painful story but so is the story of America.

I really enjoyed this book. It was fun to drive listening to their adventures. The narrator was great. It may not be a book for everyone but if you are a true crime fan you will appreciate this book.

What a mess our country is politically. Our Democratic experiment is ever changing. This was very entertaining but also disturbing. It has definitely made me think.

I didn’t know what to expect with this book but it became a really fantastic story. The actors were great. It was a but odd that there were other actors who each read one chapter but it added an interesting take to the story.

I enjoyed this book but it is not good for those that are squeamish or sensitive. The writing is top notch. It was wonderfully descriptive without over doing it. The relationship between the father and daughter is special and complicated as most are.
