I am really impressed with Steve Berry's new Cotton Malone book. The ability to cover such a deep and controversial story such as Martin Luther King Jr. death and to show the respect to the family and survivors of that terrible day in Mississippi. The book was well written and I felt as if covering it strickly from Cotton's point of view was a good call and allowed us a glimpse of what Cotton thinks and feels about the other characters and how he internally reconciling the events and truths that occur throughout the story line.

"A true diva and genius, of course. This is one the best autobiographies I've ever read, recounting Simone’s upbringing in North Carolina in a non-segregated community; her schooling as a child prodigy by a Russian grand dame piano teacher; playing rough bars in evening dress and telling the winos to shut up or she wouldn't play (and they did!); to the absolute shock when she didn't get into Juilliard because of her color. By the time she's describing writing “Mississippi Goddam,” all my hairs were standing on end! A powerful woman, powerful activist, and amazing musician."
