The Color of Water by James McBride [View all]

Just finished this wonderful book. Could not go to bed until I had finished it. Subtitle is A Black Man's Tribute to His White Mother. And tribute it is. Also warm and mixed up -- a story of family and love and survival and acceptance. I recommend it!
