Making the main character of the book a queer woman of colour and the love of her life actually being a woman instead of any of her husbands was amazing to read. The rockiness of their relationship and the hardships they had to go through just to be together without losing everything they had will send you through about a million emotions. The ending of the book was definitely something I would not have predicted as well. I knew Monique Grant's dad would be involved with Evelyn at some point, I definitely did not expect that ending, however I loved it.Spoiler

Death mentioned in content warning because it's a story of a woman's life told when she was in her 80s or around that. Naturally being that age she has had friends die and will also soon die herself, hence the mention, although there are a few deaths that are more unexpected than others.bookedfortheweekend25's review against another edition
