The Twelve Tribes of Hattie by Ayana Mathis

The Twelve Tribes of HattieThe Twelve Tribes of Hattie by Ayana Mathis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book and couldn't put it down. It was such a human story. I think I heard it compared to The Help. This was nothing like that book. This one stands alone.The characters are the richest and most believable I have encountered. the writing is beautiful and real. Only a writer with exceptional depth could come up with these characters and scenarios. Read this book.
