I really enjoyed this book except maybe the last 75 pages where it got a little to political for my taste.
The author did a great job with her research even though finding information on Mary was hard.
I liked how she went into detail on how Mary learned quickly and made herself useful and knowledgeable on everything. I was able to relate to Mary and how she felt. I felt sorry for her when she never felt love and used. I felt for her when she was punished for something that wasn't her fault.
She wasn't African American but was still a slave because of her skin color.
Her life was tough but she made the best of it. At the end I was upset because what she chose but she eventually did the right thing.
I would highly recommend that you read this book.
