This book makes the reader think about what it means to love and that love has no boundaries. Taking place in both present time and the 1930's, this book lets the reader see deep into two ladies lives. One is African American and one is Caucasian. The two of them bond with time and set out on a journey neither one will forget. Miss Isabelle is an elderly woman who needs help getting to a funeral. Dorrie, her hair dresser and friend takes her across the country by car. Dorie learns about the importance of this funeral in Miss Isabelle's life. Isabelle fell in love with a black man when it was not accepted. This book explores the power of friendship and love no matter the boundaries society places on it.
I would recommend this book to anyone. I loved how the author created a link between the two ladies and how the story easily transferred from past to present.
