I truly enjoyed this book. This is my first time reading a book by Ms. J. California Cooper and it was a hit. Each story took me to a different place, on a different journey through time. I wish I read this book when I was in HS. So many lesson.

I loved every short story in this book. J. California Cooper expertly creates scenes and characters with her words l. I could see and hear every character and felt like a knew them.

Warm and comfortable, like macaroni and cheese. The good kind.
