Sethe, who now lives a small house on the edge of town with her daughter, Denver, her mother-in-law, Baby Suggs, and a disturbing, mesmerrizing appiration who calls herself Beloved..."

I had to get my mind set to get into this book.
In the beginning nothing seems to make sense and I began to wonder where it would all come together. But, it did. I gave it an 8 rating, only because at times I had to go back and read parts again to be sure I was still on track. This was especially true when I put the book down for the night.
