A powerful family drama centered on the North family. 
We see 3 generations of these women as they go through the struggles of not only being women but Black women. 

This book will make you rage and it will make you cry. It will make you hold tight to the characters and you will get to see them pull through each thing thrown their way with dignity. They endure so much- racism, abuses of both physical and sexual, trauma, 9/11 and a lot more.

The timelines are back and forth through 70 years and through the eyes of different narrator's each chapter.
