Beautifully written, Okra Stew: A Gullah Geechee Family Celebration is heartwarming, and compelling, and shines throughout with themes of family and food, and their emphasis on passing down cultural traditions.

Here we are, book three in the Lexington, Alabama series, Love, Honor, Betray by Mary Monroe and it was something else, ya’ll.
