This book was a gift from a friend, and given to my daughter-in-law after I read it. I reviewed it in May, 2006.
A fun read with lots of Birmingham, Alabama references that made it even more interesting to me, as it was my home for 34 years..

The Last Hotel for Women: A Novel, by Vicki Covington
Read, reviewed, and released in April, 2014
A fictional account of the Civil Rights Freedom Rides as seen through the eyes of a pre-teen girl and her teen age brother. They lived in a hotel run by their parents, where many news reporters from all over stayed, as well as one Freedom Rider, and which was frequented by the infamous Bull Conner.
It was interesting for the most part, but ended abruptly with too many questions left hanging.
