Default Great Book I Just Finished Reading

I want to recommend a really good book to you all. It's called "The Kitchen House" by Kathleen Grissom. Unbelievably, it's her first novel. It takes place in the late 1700s, on a plantation. The story is told through the eyes of two narrators: One, a slave born on the plantation, and the other, a young Irish girl who comes to live there as an indentured servant. The writing style is wonderful and the story is so compelling you can't put it down. I really enjoyed it. Felt like I was there and knew the characters.

This book is historical fiction, well researched by the author.
