unbelievable that richard wright and ralph ellison hated this book! it was amazing, a view of the past in a part of history that is overlooked. because it was written by a woman from her point of view, i have a feeling that's why the men didn't like it. DEFINITELY READ THIS!!!

I really started turning the pages toward the last third of the book during Janie's romance with Tea Cake.
