Book ReviewOak Knoll is the picturesque neighborhood with book clubs, neighbors that check in when you’re sick, and beautiful trees, flowers, and bushes. Valerie had been raising her biracial son here peacefully for ten years when the Whitman family moved with. With the most the families have in common being a property line, when a budding romance starts, they begin to wonder what it means to be a good neighbor when having to weigh everything from race to class.
This was my Book of the Month (BOTM) pick for March, and to be honest, I almost skipped the month. I wasn’t sure I was in the mood for a book featuring interracial relationships, but I knew I wouldn’t get to it right away and that I’d eventually want to read this book. Surprisingly, the interracial relationship aspects ended up being my favorite part of the novel.

Hello, love! Please, don't mind the cat hair. I'm a lover of all genres (except romance, ironic, I know), and potentially --accidentally-- obsessed with feminist literary theory. Feel free to scroll around, hopefully see a few cats, and find a good new book or two!
