Ambitious and masterfully-wrought, Lauren Francis-Sharma's Book of the Little Axe is an incredible journey, spanning decades and oceans from Trinidad to the American West during the tumultuous days of warring colonial powers and westward expansion.

In 1796 Trinidad, young Rosa Rend n quietly but purposefully rebels against the life others expect her to lead. Bright, competitive, and opinionated, Rosa sees no reason she should learn to cook and keep house, for it is obvious her talents lie in running the farm she, alone, views as her birthright. But when her homeland changes from Spanish to British rule, it becomes increasingly unclear whether its free black property owners--Rosa's family among them--will be allowed to keep their assets, their land, and ultimately, their freedom.

By 1830, Rosa is living among the Crow Nation in Bighorn, Montana with her children and her husband, Edward Rose, a Crow chief. Her son Victor is of the age where he must seek his vision and become a man. But his path forward is blocked by secrets Rosa has kept from him. So Rosa must take him to where his story began and, in turn, retrace her own roots, acknowledging along the way, the painful events that forced her from the middle of an ocean to the rugged terrain of a far-away land.

Great Shirt, Awkward Shoulders
Color: Light Grey, Size: X-Large
I want to start off by saying, I really, really like this shirt. The fabric is spot on: soft, comfortable, not too thick, not too thin. Honestly, it feels like it was made by someone who understands the Goldilocks principle of clothing. So why only 4 stars instead of 5? The shoulders. I ordered my usual XL, and while the rest of the shirt fit great, the shoulders were so tight I felt like I should audition for the role of the Hulk. I exchanged it for an XXL, and now the shoulders fit perfectly… but the rest of the shirt feels like it’s training me for a parachute jump. If it weren’t for that one sizing quirk, I’d swear off buying any other shirt ever again.

Quality for price
Color: Steel Blue, Size: 3X-Large
Beautiful color, great fit! Has a nice feel to it worth investing in more colors🙂slightly wrinkled but an iron or steam will probably take those out, has a softer feel to the fabric
