Very well written, engaging and overall really entertaining. Poor Brooklyn. I loved him from the beginning of the book, right up to the end. I felt so bad for him in so many situations. Fantastic read- plan to read it again.

Nathaniel didn't smile, didn't mock him, but there was a tinge of humor. "Or are we done for t...
4.75This was a brutal read. Set in an alternative universe with a very layered and complicated slave society that juxtaposes the freeman one. Did I say brutal?
