“I listened to this book to better equip myself as an employer and I learned a LOT! It was well worth the read and I can’t recommend it enough, especially to non-black POC and white people. ”

Sara • Judging By The Cover

“Loved hearing the author read this fascinating memoir!”

Mary • Newtonville Books

“An absolutely riveting page turner about motherhood, madness, memory and desire set in an ancient mansion that has been thought to be haunted for years. There are definitely many lies being told but you will never guess who the biggest liar of them is and why the lies are being told. The ensemble cast of narrators really helped make the story come alive.”

Nancy • Fiction Addiction

“As someone who is living with a loved one with LBD, this book hit close to home and felt like a memoir. I had to check halfway through to make sure it wasn’t. Although I saw so many parallels, I was surprised at the distance Addie placed between herself and Leo. Caregiving is difficult, and everyone handles the slow grief differently, but she took it to an extreme that I can’t fathom. Heavy subject but very good story.”

Nona • CoffeeTree Books

“A tender, beautiful recounting of coming into oneself. Roza’s reflections are full of emotion: sometimes bittersweet and painful, yet bursting full of love for friends, family, culture, home, and queerness. ”

Baylee • Daisy Chain Book Co.

“If you read one book this year, it should be this one. A powerful, deeply human story that blends history, science, and advocacy, shedding light on the world’s deadliest disease and the inequalities that sustain it, told through the story of Henry, a young patient in Sierra Leone. ”
