challenging dark emotional informative reflective sad slow-paced

Annette Gordon-Reed is a true historical detective. She pieced together so many stories from bits and pieces of information and caught the tiniest details to shed light on stories that have been purposely obfuscated. She looked at the Hemings’s lives from every possible angle and surrounded them with so much context you couldn’t doubt what she was saying. This book is a long one, but so worth it. It’s an important founding story of this country that needs to be told, and I’m so grateful it has been brought more completely into the light.

Ugh I love this book! It was adorable and sexy and wholesome all at the same time. Bonus that the lines of communication and consent were very open between the main characters. The characters were SO lovable and beautiful together! Highly, highly recommend!
