#Readingtheamericas2023 #monserrat A bit of a cheat given this is a YA adaptation of the original autobiography but it is what the library delivered. I will go back and look for the original to read. Meanwhile this was quite impactful as a first hand narrative of the horrors of slavery. Only partially taking place on Montserrat but there are very few books about Monserrat..

Librarybelle I didn‘t know there was a YA adaptation of the original! 1y
BarbaraBB Such a hard country to find a book for. Well done! 1y

Really enjoying this massive #HF about real life business magnate Dorothy Kirwan Thomas. A once slave girl who became one of the wealthiest women in the West Indies. #ReadingAmericas23 #Monserrat #Guyana #Dominica

Cinfhen It‘s really good @rockpools but it‘s a chunkster!!! Although I‘m so enraptured by “Doll” that I don‘t mind the page count 💕 2y
