    This is one of the best books ever. The book can be difficult to read due to the subject matter.

    A beautifully written story about a horrible time in history. Very moving.

    This book is a little depressing. It is a harsh look at slavery. Not for the faint of heart, but important.

  15. Revat Mehra –

    I struggled to finish this book because of the graphic content. A very important book.
