Great Book!

Wonderful book, great people--I want to know what happened next! Sequel Tish please!

A MUST READ

This character-driven novel is a page-turner that deserves to become a classic. It's an honest portrayal of a black family in rural 1940s Mississippi, written in the vein of "Tortilla Curtain". Incredibly sad yet hopeful, it's simply the way it was. I swear I could even smell the rose bay scent.

a wonderful choice

This is the awesomest book ever, and everyone out there should read it!
