Take My Hand

by Dolen Perkins-Valdez

Inspired by true events that rocked the nation, a profoundly moving novel about a Black nurse in post-segregation Alabama who blows the whistle on a terrible wrong done to her patients.

This story will make you angry, cry, yell, all the emotions are strong and gut wrenching. If you read this book and don’t see links of so many things that are still happening in our world like this, you need to open your eyes. Stories like this should make you outraged.

“The writing is so strong, the characters are well-developed and you get caught up in their emotions; the story is compelling and repelling; messy in a way that life is. The unfolding story is powerful, the characters are brave and unforgettable, and what happened is a story that must be told.” BookBrowse Review
