a good read

I retreated to bed early last night to read the second half of a wonderful book: Cold Rock River. I highly recommend this book. It is set in the 1960's and mirrors a teenage girl's life with that of a Southern slave around the time of the Civil War. It was wonderfully written with strong character development, a plot that kept me turning pages, an ending that left me, yet again, sad that the book was over. I'm off to check out J.L. Miles first novel Roseflower Creek.
