The Color of Water-- Finished

For the next meeting of the BBC we are reading, The Color of Water by James McBride which is also the selection for the Durham reads program.  This novel is a moving memoir of a young man and his relationship with his mother. So far, it is moving along quite quickly.

This book made a good meal companion and ocean watching buddy.  I loved the way the author gave a good perspective about race, religion, and family. It made me realize that the process of coming home really is about making peace with your past.
