Take My Hand
by Dolen Perkins-Valdez
Great historical fiction (10/13/2021)
This book is heart wrenching. It is fiction but highlights the inequalities women if color face, this time in the healthcare system. It is beautifully written, and stresses the importance of remembering the past.
The Three Mothers: How the Mothers of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, and James Baldwin Shaped a Nation
by Anna Malaika Tubbs
Good Historical Work (12/7/2020)
I really enjoyed The Three Mother's. Wow, they were some strong ladies! While reading this I tried to put myself into some of the situations these ladies faced and I know I would not have had the bravery and divinity these women displayed. This would be a good book for book clubs.
The author lost me when she got political in the last chapter. I don't participate in political discussions and don't want to read about anyone's political views. I skipped most of the last chapter.
Migrations: A Novel
by Charlotte McConaghy
Fantastic Book!!! (4/23/2020)
I loved Migrations! Reading this book during the Covid-19 pandemic was very interesting. There are always two strong arguments in every controversy and it was interesting to read these points in the book and also seeing these points in relation to Covid. Throw in some beautiful language and Migrations is a hit! My favorite lines of the whole book are "We are wiping them out. Creatures that have learned to survive anything, everything, except us."
I think Migrations would be an excellent book club read. I think the best discussion books are ones in which people will naturally divide on an issue and have differing points of view. This book has enough back story that it will appeal to most readers. I read it in two days, earmarked a ton of pages and look forward to reading it again!
