I'm hoping I'll find a few tales like ones my grandmothers have told me about the pride stitched into each new flour sack dress or the joy of taking turns chewing a single stick of chewing gum (a rare and treasured treat). I'll give it a few chapters and hope for the best, but I admit I'm not feeling hopeful at all.

I'm liking it, and I'm glad I gave it some time. I still feel the heaviness, but it's like reading someone's diary, which is always interesting.

Phew. It's heavy, but not crushing. I'm relieved.

I've only read the prologue, and I'm already second guessing my decision to pick this one up. Already it feels almost suffocating. I already feel as though this won't be a book about celebrating the mere act of both surviving and finding glints of happiness while growing up in poverty, which is pretty much what defines the south to me.
