I read the Kindle version of this book. I checked off some violence in my review because there is a shooting and a death. However, even without that I could not put some mention of violence since this book discusses rape of women slaves by their white owners. This is a powerful part of the story that needs to be included. I loved the heroine of this story. There are many strong characters within these pages.I liked this book so much that I just purchased a paperback copy of it for my 14 year old granddaughter. I know she will share it with her 17 year old sister. I'm secretly hoping one of them will use it as the basis for a school project. We need to be aware of this in our history. Even though I am not from the south I need to know of these amazing people who built our country. Purchase this book. You won't be disappointed.
I started reading this book because of the mad respect I have for the author and her work. I didn't know if I would enjoy it, but I'm happy to say that I LOVED it.Let me be clear from the beginning: this book has a ghost (not scary, though) and deals with racism and slavery. And while the author has some important things to say about the latter two, her views are woven into the story so well that readers are challenged in subtle ways. She doesn't flat-out preach her views, and there isn't what I would call a wrapped-up-with-a-bow kind of ending. (I was afraid we were headed there and it didn't feel right, so I'm glad she did what she did. That's all I'll say.)The teenage narrator Mary Steele is likable and moves the story along at a good pace. I look forward to more books in this series from this author.
I don’t think I’ve ever read a book that started out so seemingly simple and ended up so profound. Steele Secrets is the story of a teenage girl who meets a ghost in an unmarked cemetery. I could tell from the beginning that this “young adult novel†would be a good read, even for a 60-year-old boomer. But the ending was more than good. The ending moved me powerfully. I teared up several times during the last few chapters and sobbed at the end, but in a good way. Having gotten to know the characters and caring about them, especially 17-year-old Mary Steele, I cheered them on. I even cheered out loud once. Steel Secrets is a story about integrity, wisdom, and compassion. It’s a story with the potential to change hearts and minds, to help people understand as Mary did, that “You don’t have to fight with harm. You can fight with good, too.â€Steele Secrets is a book I’m proud to have read.
From the moment I met 17 year old Mary Steele, the heroine of Andi Cumbo-Floyd’s new novel Steele Secrets, I wanted to know more about her. This is a young woman of uncommon intelligence and integrity, of gentle courage and a strong heart filled with deeply sensitive emotions. Through a series of strange-but-true circumstances, Mary is moved to take a stand against racism and injustice in the small town she calls home. True to her name she demonstrates nerves of steel as she uses her intelligence and her determination to prevent the town from destroying an old and forgotten cemetery, one that holds the remains of slaves from a local plantation.Cumbo-Floyd has woven so many lovely themes throughout this book, one that she is marketing for young adults, but one this definitely older adult could not put down. These themes are vitally important for people of all ages: appreciation of our heritage, tolerance for those who aredifferent, honoring the past, learning from our mistakes, and combatting evil with good. This would be a great book for classroom reading, or for families to read together, with much to think about and discuss.Steele Secrets was a completely un-put-downable story, and inspired more than a few tears along the way. I’m so glad I got to know Mary Steele, and I’d love to read more about her and where life might take her next. Somehow, I have a feeling wherever it is and whatever she does, she’ll make it matter.
I didn't know what to expect when I started reading this book. But it was about slaves and I've always been fascinated with personal stories as opposed to just stiff old numbers.On the one hand I want to learn, want to hear the stories, on the other hand it keeps me up at night because it happened to real people and it is happening to real people. The horror, sadness and pain in the stories are depressing but need to be told and in the form of a story it brings it so much closer. And it needs to come closer, so that we will care. It needs to come close enough to hurt.Even if some stories are fictional, as is this one, other stories happened years ago to real people. Similar stories happened and happen.I can't do anything about it for those people but I can do my part, a little part, in the stories of today. If just a fraction of the people on earth gave a few dollars a month, a lot could be done. And what would happend if we would all diligently pray?On to my review itself ;)Steel Secrets was a short, fun read. A Young Adult fictional noval, a little bit of mystery and a whole lot of activism. Friendship, family, adventure.It gave me foood for though, it did certainly bring it closer. Some concepts about things that really happened to slaves, about their decendants and their master's decendants I had never really thought about. Mary Steel Secrets connects then with now in a suprisingly simple way.It moves quite fast, focusses on the story/event at hand. This is fine, although I personally prefer slower moving stories with a lot more pages involved and more background and character development.Even so, I really enjoyed reading this and came away with some beautiful lessons that are woven into the story without preaching.The plus about it being a short-ish story is that it is good for teens who don't want to start reading a 1000 page novel ;)It is well written and as far as I can tell, very well researched. The story itself gives very interesting information on how to go about doing family/history research. I love learning history and how-to's in a story. It all comes in without any effort on my part!I liked this book, but the one I really loved was 'The Slaves Have Names' by the same author. It's geared more towards adults, tells beautiful stories about real people. Do read that and read this one as well! : The Slaves Have Names: Ancestors of My Home
