Mama Ruby is a page turner...you can't put down!
Once again Mary Monroe has captivated me with a story that is told so vivid and to the point about Ruby Jean Upshaw. Although her young life was full of tragedy Monroe lures you in and sends the listener/reader on a roller coaster ride. I listened to this book before the prequel The Upper Room but I am anxious to see what happens to Mama Ruby. Great job Mary Monroe!

Good story
I didn’t realize this was a series of books so I read the Upper Room first. I’m on track now because I’m about to start the third one. I must admit I found this one more interesting. Some of it was really sad because of the horror some people were faced with even as young kids.

Wow- The narrator brings this story to life!!
If you could sum up Mama Ruby in three words, what would they be?
If you loved the Upper Room and wanted more this book is for you. It goes back in time and tells you all about Ruby from childhood to adulthood. I enjoyed the narrator, Kevin Free. He brings the story to life with how he changes the voice for each character. I found myself laughing out loud and very entertained. I want more!
