I love stories of family legacies! We learn so much about historic times and about ourselves. This book is exactly that. It shows just what this particular woman and her family endured through prejudice, war, illness, poverty, jealousy and of course love and happiness during Jamaica's early colonial days.

I loved the way the author told this story through diary entries and letters, the history and culture that is covered was new for me, and discovering her families history and the way she presented it was a captivating read. I highly recommend reading this story!

Normally I am more of a horror/thiller/fantasy fan but I must say this was an exceptional read. I loved the diary and letter between the family members format. You get a very real feel for all involved and as it is based on real history it makes for an excellent way to spend and afternoon in the sun. If you love history and want a very real look then this is a must read, and if you don't you'll probably like it anyway!

I enjoyed the book. It brought out the differences that the different nationalities face when people love beyond color. Whenever a group of people try and force their belief on others there will be conflicts. As this daughter searched for her roots it can either lead to reunion or further separation. It showed the strife that broke this family apart.
