Sometime I just want to hug the folks who take the time to write and post a review. Thank you, dear reader. TROUBLE THE WATER, by Rebecca Dwight Bruff "This may be a fictionalized account of the life of Robert Smalls, but it feels incredibly real and the author does a brilliant job of bringing this American hero to life. The pacing kept me turning pages well into the morning hours and I blazed through it in two days. I’m reading it again, at a slower, more deliberate pace...and it’s just as good the second time around." #reading #robertsmalls ##robertsmallsunsungblackhero #books #dontmissit #ordernow #bookclubofinstagram #bookclubbook #historylovers #truthbetold #greatbooks #sharethisbook
