I will have to read, I got a copy the day you told me about it. Read that Anything you say or do. While not even close to what I expected, I have to admit I had to finish to see what happened. It definitely held my attention, now back to lie with me, starting slow, but I’ve heard from so many it’s good, going to continue!
Allegedly. She didn’t say much in that first interview with detectives, and the media filled in the only blanks that mattered: A white baby had died while under the care of a churchgoing black woman and her nine-year-old daughter. The public convicted Mary and the jury made it official. But did she do it? She wouldn’t say.
Mary survived six years in baby jail before being dumped in a group home. The house isn’t really “home”—no place where you fear for your life can be considered a home. Home is Ted, who she meets on assignment at a nursing home.
There wasn’t a point to setting the record straight before, but now she’s got Ted—and their unborn child—to think about. When the state threatens to take her baby, Mary must find the voice to fight her past. And her fate lies in the hands of the one person she distrusts the most: her Momma. No one knows the real Momma. But who really knows the real Mary?
Im about 1/3 of the way through A Clash of Kings by George RR Martin and I just finished Put Me Back Together by Lola Rooney last night! Would highly recommend both ❤️

@Donna yes, I’m loving it!! I did watch the first three seasons of the tv series this year, which I never watch the show/movie before I read the book, BUT I love the tv series too!!!
