My favorite in this book is Mary J not because she is intelligent and gifted but because she was will to help his siblings to succeed and also she is a solution finder. Good job.

The more females do more great things in the community, the more it stands as a motivation for others. I hope Mary fulfills her dream though.

This book seems interesting, and the tragic scenes make it even more interesting. Mary J, the protagonist, seems like an engaging character, and I admire how she stayed focused on her dreams. I must say raising nine children is not an easy task, and I admire John Westley and Ada's efforts in doing that.

Thanks for this detailed review. Some societies view women as being weak but this book has disproved that and goes ahead to encourage and motivate women t that there is no limit to what we can achieve.

This book is great for all to read no matter the gender.

A book with suspense and love in it is a must-read for me. I must say that Mary j is a courageous woman, she is an inspiration to some women out there, who think they can't achieve their dreams because of their gender. I like that She pursued her dream with faith, prayer, and determination. Great review.

That is great of Mary. But it is painful as her mother died without seeing her daughter on her probable sunny days.

I love that you highlighted the character of Minka Sharpe as your favorite, and how the author infused life into her personality. It's always a great sign when an author can create characters that feel real and relatable.

It's great that you pointed out the sexual content in the book. While it may not be for everyone, it's important to acknowledge it and let potential readers make an informed decision.
