Customer Reviews

The House of Eve touches EVERY emotion

This book touched every emotion! Dr. Johnson had me thinking I knew the end, then took some interesting turns! Also this gives me questions to ask my own Mom about my beginning...

Give It A Chance

Give this one a chance. Once I got into the book, I was pleasantly surprised on how easy of a read it was. I was so eager to learn how the people connected and was always surprised with something new, every few pages. A fiction book mixed with actual historical events was really nice. I immediately ordered another book by Sadeqa after finishing this one.

I will read anything Sadeqa Johnson writes

Sadeqa Johnson is such an amazing storyteller. This book is the best book I've read in 2023, and I doubt that anything will replace it at the top of my list. This book weaves together the stories of two different Black women in a seamless, effortless way.
