Sad to say, I didn’t enjoy this book. I went in excited, but it ended up being a letdown. I DNF’d at chapter 30, and here’s why: I was over the constant talk of the affair with W.E.B. Du Bois, the FMC wasn’t memorable (I honestly can’t recall one thing about her), and I just found myself bored. I even tried the audiobook, but the unnecessary singing every now and then only made it more irritating. Historical fiction is one of my favorite genres, but sadly, this one completely missed the mark for me.
