Greyson, I could heart their voices and totally enjoyed this book. I know I will read it again. If anyone has a Color Nook and would be interested in reading I will see if this book has the share option as I don't mind sharing it with others.

I rarely read fiction but I could not put this book down. I grew up during this era in Southern California and played with the children of African American women domestics that abandoned the South and moved to California to make a better life for their children. We all lived in the projects. IMO, this book sounds pretty realistic.
