Good story, but slow read. Didn’t captivate me like others

This book was good, kept me in the edge of my seat. Also makes me want a lobster roll!!!!

So in love with hades and her friends and family. I can't wait till the next book comes out in sept.

It started out slow, almost gave up but has a few great twists in it! Finished strong

Very insightful.

It was very inspiring and very nice to read about so many people’s stories.

This book is a novel, but uses actual history to tell the story. One of Roosevelt's New Deal creations was the Kentucky Pack Horse Librarians. It was a way for poor women to earn money to feed their families. The heroine, Cussy Mary is one of these women. She is loving & caring but has one problem - her skin is blue. Not just tinted, but the more excited or upset she gets, the brighter blue her skin is. People around her considered her to be "colored". In 1936, to be colored was to be an outcast - and to be blue was much worst than being brown or black. Prejudice & hate were common. "Blue" people hid deep in the Kentucky hollers. I think the author wanted to show people how stupid prejudice & hatred are. It's a good story and well worth reading.

This book is very well written and has a great message of hope in dark times.

It was a good sequel to the first book. I enjoyed reading it, and I would recommend if you enjoyed reading the first book.

Loved this novel! I couldn’t wait for my reading time each day to catch up on the character’s journey. It was a very quick and exciting read
