Struggling to put it down.The story is heart wrenching and thus far has fantastically told the story of a young girl in Africa who was kidnapped to a slave ship. The author spares no details in the narration of the journey to America, the girl’s impressions upon arrival, and the auction. All perfunctorily covered in school, but the added details fill in an even more horrific picture than I previously imagined.
