Several things bothered me about this book, but the two main problems were:
1) The many small inaccuracies and inconsistencies the author didn't bother to check. Such as saying that a person left, but a few sentences later saying that the same person helped Ann do something and then left. Also, saying that Ann and her first husband moved "northward" from Montgomery to Dothan, Alabama, when Dothan is 125 miles south of Montgomery. This is sloppy and amateurish.
2) The continual message that black people need to get themselves a white savior or two. I really hope I don't have to explain why this is not okay, especially from a black author.
