- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I have never loved a book more. This is a difficult read, but so important. The history was woven so expertly into a Fiction novel. It explains the what was happening at the time between races during WWII. I saw someone asked “What book changed your life?” recently on social media. While I think “changing my life” is a stretch, I definitely think this gave me a different perspective and details I didn’t know before reading the novel that will stay with me long after I have read it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The author is a mensch. He understands people and his characters are so real. The reader learns American history in a gripping, moving way. One of the best books of historical fiction. I love Thelma, Luthier, George, Jazzman.
