About this deal

compound to attend a memorial service for former film star Kitty Karr Tate, their beloved elderly next-door neighbor. It was interesting all that Kitty had to go through in her life and to find out how her life intertwined with the other women in this book. When white silver screen actress Kitty Karr Tate dies and unexpectedly leaves her multimillion-dollar estate to the Black St. When the late White movie star, Kitty Karr Tate, leaves her multimillion dollar fortune and estate to the St. Feeling a rush of tears, Elise turned from the kitchen entry and walked farther down the driveway to the backyard.

My apologies to Reese, but I’m not a fan of the author’s narrative structure and storytelling techniques.The story as I mentioned could have been a great story but it suffered from a disorganized storytelling and a weak modern framing of that story. He would continue sleeping on the floor of a friend’s apartment for another year, but it was the first time he realized he could—even as a Black man—make money doing what he loved. The truth behind Kitty’s ascent to stardom from her beginnings in the segregated South threatens to expose a web of unexpected family ties, debts owed, and debatable crimes that could, with one pull, unravel the all-American fabric of the St. You are already millionaires, who just inherited more millions and they were unhappy, ungrateful and overall seemed miserable in their lives. Some came right out and asked it, and social media was a cauldron of racist epithets; it was Meghan Markle hysteria times three.

There’s a ton of characters in the Elise storyline right at the beginning and it was a little hard to keep track of.I found myself going back and forth with pages confirming what I read because it didn’t quite make sense/fit in the storyline.

Purchasing via these links does not cost you any extra and helps me cover the costs of running the blog. What it tells me is that you either 1) do not have Black friends, or 2) you DO have Black friends but they don’t tell you anything of substance because they see you for what you are.

A compelling odyssey into the consequences our choices can have across history and generations, the psychic toll and moral complexities of those choices, and the devastating secrets hidden behind even the most glamorous and opulent of lives and the most “pristine” family trees. An impressive debut that covers a wide range of topics from racism, family, fame, motherhood and more. That portion of the novel also focuses on the love they have for each other, and the struggles of living under segregation. by Crystal Smith Paul is an engaging and moving read about the impact of racism on an American family.

This is an incredibly thought-provoking debut - it made me feel very conflicted between all the characters and interested in learning more about the issues in the book. They seemed quickly slapped together, which was evident in the lack of coherency and eloquence in the prose. Kitty Karr is an iconoclastic, complicated, and fascinating woman whose legacy is as relevant as ever today.The story became a lot more interesting to me after it opened up a second timeline about a single mother in the segregated South in the 1930s-50s. On the main street, the paparazzi, who usually waited in the enclave outside the Bel Air gates, spotted Andy and jumped into a van to follow.
