The House Girl by Tara Conklin
4.0

A beautiful story in the past and present that wants to give us a girl, not really seen, seen. To give her a rightful place as an artist as she should have been all along.... Had she not been a slave. I loved Josephine's story. Her dedication to her "missus" and the resilience in her nature.
I also loved Lina's dedication to bringing Josephine's story to light in the present.
Well written for a wonderful debut!
