   Is Mama a good book?

   • Though titled Mama, the novel is more concerned with showing one woman trying to be the best mother she can be while also trying to be the best person she can be. The opposition of these roles (mother and individual) fuels much of the tension, conflict, humor, and character development that make Mama such a success.

   What is the setting of Mama?

   • Set when the Civil Rights, Black Power, student protest, anti-Vietnam War, and feminist movements made their most significant cultural gains, Mama positions its protagonist’s struggle within the larger context of a rapidly changing America.

   How many children does Mama have?

   • Mama is 27 with 5 children. I loved this book as it was Terry McMillan' first novel!!! It was the hottest book back in the day being read by so many. Also, though this is a sad situation, Mama is portrayed as one who struggles to overcome her plight. This is an easy very good read.

   How long should a book summary be?

   • The summary is never longer than 1,200 words which leave a lot of the book ideas out of the summary. Their format isn’t good for the best books out there since they have to cut out a lot to fit it in “4 minutes.” They don’t actually read the books they write summaries for. They read the summaries on Blinkist and then write summaries of summaries.
