Too lengthy. Too racially biased. Made this reader sometimes feel uncomfortable, but wanted to acknowledge the author’s efforts.

Strong characters.

I enjoyed this book...excited about book 2 of this series . Mama Ruby displays that necessary evil side that some wished they possessed. She gives a whole new meaning to "loving hard." She protects those she loves and in the words of her son Virgil, " I'd rather be in hell than in your shoes mister." Yes!
