📖BOOK TITLE: BLACK CAKE 

📖GENRE: HISTORICAL FICTION 

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:

#LetterB of my alphabet challenge #FirstBookOf2024 

This book is heartbreaking, very sad. I kept wondering how bad things will get but I didn't expect that much to happen to Covey Or should I say Eleanor. Covey suffered a lot like a lot but I am glad that at the end she did have a happy life. 

Not many people will do what Gilbert Grant did for love, to change your entire life just for one person is huge and I am so happy that that one person was so worth it. I LOVE LOVE❤❤

I found BENNY to be insensitive, she dwelled to much on herself than others. Her found her brother's(Bryon) character way much better.

What i didn't  like was Covey waited until the very last moment for her to tell her family the truth(what happens when you live a lie for too long, it becomes your truth😪).  

This book was very sad, so many secrets 😥😭😭

A fan of Historical Fiction, I recommend this book!
