This book is filled with dark and evil. I enjoyed this book. It starts out with the death of Grubbs' parents and sister by demons, which Grubbs witnesses. Grubbs deals with his family's death and the fact that no one believes him about the demons.For the next few months, maybe even a year, Grubbs stays with his uncle. He learns of his family and his past. This book was amazing and full of magic and family. I recommend this book to everyone, even though it may seem dark and evil, as you continue, you will find it is much more than that. ...less

This book is about a poor, black family living in Chicago after World War II. Lena recieves a check from her husband's insurance after his death. This causes big problems within the family. Walter Lee sees this check as a big opportunity for a business he wants to start. I don't like this book at all. It is a play and is placed in the past. At many points in the book it tended to be very boring. There were a lot of unneccessary details in the book. I do not recommend this book to any one. It you like plays that has a lot of conflict....less
