Very thought provoking. Though published in the 90s many points hold true today and have become increasingly relevant as racial tensions rise in America. I marked so many interesting facts and thoughts I ended up buying my own copy to keep all my notes in haha

Overall, enjoyed it but I felt they spent too much time with Francesca and Michael fighting their attraction vs. them actually enjoying being together. Plus, I wasn't sure how I felt about Francesca ending up being able to get pregnant in the 2nd epilogue because I think it sends a message (in some ways) that she couldn't really be happy without a child.

It was little fun

Last of the midnight series. Fun and smutty

Good

This is a fantastic book of Bertrice Small. It follows the titular character through multiple adventures and multiple marriages. No one can write romance like thr late Bertrice Small.

SA Crosby knows how to tell a simmering pot story. This is an excellent one of those.

This book was both heartwarming and heartbreaking with a touch of humor. The book is about a kid’s mom, who gets deported one day while he’s at school. But just to add to the drama, he loses a friend, has to take care of his little siblings alone, and tries to be elected school president. It’s an amazing book, and I definitely recommend it to anyone who has ever felt alone.

As always King does not disappoint. I was frustrated with Arnie the whole time as I watched the grip Christine/LeBay’s ghost had on him grow and he alienated everyone and destroyed his entire life. The part at the end where the police try to crush the car into a little cube and one swears it but him...and you are left imagining the cube slowly popping back, growing bigger, and Christine putting herself back together. Also made me not want to eat burgers in a car for a long time.

I like so many things about it, it’s way too much to fit in the space. When the teacher said “take your seats” they just picked them up and walked to the door! There were so many funny parts.
