Delphine, Vonetta, and Fern are off to Alabama to visit their grandmother Big Ma and her mother, Ma Charles. Across the way lives Ma Charles‘s half sister, Miss Trotter. The two half sisters haven‘t spoken in years. As Delphine hears about her family history, she uncovers the surprising truth that‘s been keeping the sisters apart. But when tragedy strikes, Delphine discovers that the bonds of family run deeper than she ever knew possible.
Very quick read. Very heavy read. Very important that you memorize this family tree before beginning! A lot of characters with very deep scars loved seeing them back on the same side of the creek. Also omg Vonetta had me sobbing and I was worried sick 🤕
