FortFort is a Deck Building game about building the best den and making friends. Coming from Leder Games, it features the same cutesy art as Vast and Root, only this time it is perhaps more in line with the theme!Reimplementing lesser known but highly regarded SPQF, Fort changes the Roman Civ building theme and turns it into this awesome little used theme of friend finding, pizza collecting and fort building!Deck Building is a mechanic where players start with a weak hand that they try to improve during the game. Fort messes with the formula in a few ways with the players having randomised starting hands and being able to follow other players actions!Cards come in ones of six suits (and a wild) and have a public action and a private action on them. When you play them you'll get to do both actions and other players can discard a card of the matching suit to also take the public action. You will also be able to take friends from other players yards - if they are foolish enough to leave them there!You'll be collecting pizza and toy tokens along the way with the aim of trading them in to upgrade your fort. Certain levels will gain you a reward, but all will improve you scoring potential! Fort has a great underused theme that should appeal widely, but backing this up is a solidly designed game with interesting twists and riffs on the standard deck building format. Games with follow actions also mean there is a lot less down time, meaning players are actively engaged throughout the game. Decisions will be tough as you decide whether to follow other people or save cards for your own turn. Deck builder fans are going find a lot to love here but so is everyone else!Player count: 2-4Time: 20-40 minutesAge rating: 10+

Factual young adult read!
Format: Paperback
The book was as wonderful as could be expected considering the subject matter. The author clearly did her research. That was made apparent early own when she depicted African storytelling. It was fast pace and the writing style was simplistic. I later discovered this is consider a young adult read so that’s why the simplistic writing style and the lack of profanity. Yes, there were racial slurs and derogatory remarks, but nowhere near as heavy and hard hitting as other books I’ve read. I would consider it “clean” and the rape scenes were brief and not detailed. I will say I initially struggled with Polly’s introduction into the story. My mind immediately went to white savior and I was put off. Even after I realized that wasn’t the narrative the author was going for I still struggled to like her detailed presence and felt like the story should have been solely focused on Amari. However after I got about half way through the book the author skillfully made me forget all about that dislike with a surprising plot twist. From then on I had to read with my hand covering the adjacent page because my eyes would try to skip over and read what’s next. The end of their journey had started to feel a bit fairytalish but the author subtly rectified that with numerous clear facts. So that was appreciated. I feel like some authors try to say “well yeah they went through all these horrible things but they finally were free and lived happily ever after”… like no, not quite. In the afterword, Draper does separate fact from fiction and encourages the reader to do some deeper research of their own. She list numerous informative sites as well as books. I do feel like the simplistic writing style and the fast pace story took away from the emotional depth of the characters. Just to clarify, this is a work of fiction but the facts of the story are true.

Incredible story and amazing research ❤️
Format: Paperback
I read this book in middle school and never got a chance to finish reading it. I’m happy I was able to remember the name of the book and find out what happened to Amari. I loved how the Author put a lot of historical places and research into this book. I love how she added the indentured servant Polly. I never knew what an indentured servant was? This story was beautiful but I felt Polly, Amari and Tidbit had tremendous luck with getting to freedom. Seems like everyone was willing to help them which I found odd. I understand that the book is suppose to be Fiction but it didn’t seem realistic to only have Clay searching for them? I’m pretty sure back in those times runaways slaves/indentured servants were hunt down. I just wish the author would have made that part more realistic . I wish she would of added in the story slave hunters and people putting up rewards for them to be captured. It would of made me feel like I was transported back in time. Other than that this was an incredible story. Towards the end of the book is the best part. You can actually look up all the websites/research she used to create this book. I looked up most of those websites and was quite amazed. I’m a huge history buff so this was very exciting for me. 😍❤️😁

An 8th grade teacher reads to students yearly
Format: Kindle
Because she made a point to tell me this has been apart of her lessons and she's been teaching 20+ years I wanted to know why!? Very educational for everyone especially in today's time. Compassion is lacking for people no matter the color of your skin, if every race read this then there would be anger but if they look past that its we as people need more compassion for others.

Format: Kindle
So very well written with searing details that bring the horrors of slavery in America into stark relief. It also shows that American slaves were Humans that created and lived in a loving family and community with it's distinct culture, knowledge, and traditions. And it shows how a caring and respectful people with a tradition of warmly greeting strangers, even those that look very different from them, similar to Native Americans in North America, get savagely treated and killed by Europeans. This is one of those special instances when a "loser" gets to write history...the whole history.

A well-written and engaging book
Format: Hardcover
I read this book for a college course, actually. It is difficult to call it a "good" book because the content is pretty awful, but it is well written. There are many sad and stressful moments; the author is very good at pulling you into the emotions of what it would be like to live through the horrors of slavery. My mom read the book after me as well. Neither of us could put it down.
