Running the DAY after getting beat????????? What’s actually going on here?

Also I feel like that scene was unnecessary and gave #GirlBossDown. Also Also why are we not saying that there is a legal difference between slavery and apprenticeship. The lines are blurred but Shearer makes them the same things and they’re not the same thing.

Empowered woman as an apprentice… this is sounding more and more like Riley.

The fact that no papers is just now an issue is crazy but also WHY doesn’t Mary Grace have papers?!???

Damn we demonizing Cherry Jane but not Thomas Augustus for making their own way in the world? Please gtf.

Shearer trying to hit every historical person, event and fact she could find eh. Why is everything so easy?!

First its soldiering on on Micah’s death then next its crying?!

Why is she writing like this?!? Let the characters rucking feeling something

I hate the conversation these characters have - like is Nobody running or is he living the only life he knows?!?

She just abandoning Cherry Jane like so?? Also she really asks dumb questions (of course Black men would have been working on ships).

Why are positioning free POC against apprenticed? And why are we acting like there weren’t harsh laws already?!??? (76-77)

Can lips thin from lack of use? I like that Mama B has a large network.

"Hope hurts."

This book is wrecking me. 2/3 complete
