A woman looks back on her family history as her children want to compare it to Gone With the Wind. But most life in slave owning Louisiana was not good, not easy, and no Rhett Butler to be found. This is the first of three volumes. It‘s very intense and dark. The illustrator does an excellent job using color to display emotion both in the highs and the lows. I loved the mix of hoodoo, plantation, and slave story.

What does it mean to be human? At the start the reader thinks the last human has crashed on some foreign planet, when in fact he has come to earth 500,000 years after humans left. But there was one visitor earlier; his wife. But life is complicated when an AI, in this case Alpha, has more humanity than the human. This is an interesting look at life and what could happen both on this planet and on others.
Just an update on my reading month.
I‘m on my 5th book for the #bookspinbonaza. I DNFed in at the half way point. Plus I‘ve done 2 other audiobooks and 3 other graphic novels.
