“But I am not the mother of anybody’s children, I said, and I am something.” Some light airport reading

“The minute she say it I know I don’t like Grady. I don’t like his shape, I don’t like his teef, I don’t like his clothes. Seem like to me he smell.” Me anytime I meet my friends’ boyfriends (I firmly believe all my friends are out of all men’s league)

“First time somebody made something and name it after me.” All this book does is make me misty eyed 😭

“She say, All my life I had to fight. I had to fight my daddy. I had to fight my brothers. I had to fight my cousins and my uncles. A girl child ain’t safe in a family of men. But I never thought I’d have to fight in my own house.” 😭
