    Deeply painful to read, but deeply rewarding.

    Best book ever. The cover page wasn't the one I was expecting, was a little disappointed because I wanted the purple cover with her in a rocking chair, specifically but that was only for sentimental reasons. The book is still great and I still remember it all. <3

  • Color Purple Novel Review

    I am enjoying the novel, but I was not expecting the novel to have the previous owners name written all over the book. It’s an awful sight in my library.
