I read this book for a book group via Facebook, and I must admit, it was absolutely amazing. I was a bit wary of it when I first read the description (I'm not much of a historical fiction person), but I could barely put it down!
If you haven't heard of it, definitely look it up - it comes highly recommended. My one issue with it? I read it at the same time as Beloved and Margaret Garner: A Libretto, which should be an issue, other than the fact that the main character of The Kitchen House seems to reflect upon Margaret Garner a bit. So there were a couple of times in my English class where I referred to something and no one had any idea what I was talking about, since I got the books confused.
