A Great Read
I love books that transport me, touch me and make me think. This book accomplishes all those things. I was transported across the country, back in time to a period that wouldn't exist today in the US, and that shouldn't have existed earlier. What would we do without the social service nets we have today? What did these woman have to do to survive? If not for the kindness of strangers, their lives would have been much worse. They were sold into slavery by their own, and rescued by strangers.
I also enjoyed the movie immensely.
