I very much enjoyed Sue Monk Kidd’s The Invention of Wings. We need more books, fiction or otherwise, about the Grimké sisters, Sarah and Angelina.
*Note: Apparently this was a damn Oprah book pick and if you buy a Kindle copy, you might find Oprah’s notes IN THE BOOK. That… stinks. If you’re thinking about buying this, avoid the kindle copy since there are blue notes in the text — that’s Oprah sticking her two cents in. Blech. I’m very glad I read a library copy that did not have Oprah’s notes in it, just the dumb Oprah book selection banner on the front. Blech. Oprah, stay out of people’s darn books!
