Black Water Tales: To the Moon and Back
by Jean Nicole Rivers

fast-paced
Wow! What a horrific story that affects so many Black women! I felt this story to my core. This is as story to remind us of the horrors and the trauma of giving birth and how the medical system treats Black women. The way Jean Nicole Rivers writes a scene and pulls you into the story was done very well. I also loved that the reader is not quite sure what the horror is until the end of the book.
