Revues Galore
The story is very gender friendly. There are a few fight
scenes graphic enough for those who love action
coupled with the mystery and murder. This storyline is
very much believable. There are many women who
experience domestic violence just like so many people
experience being taken advantage of. It flowed very
well and never became stale. It intense kept building
and building and when you wonder what happens
next, the author makes sure to allow that character to
resurface to remember the connection in the
storyline. KUDOS!!!
was necessary to the plot. There was not one
character that the book could do without.
I found myself relating to the main character, Daniel.
After losing so much and the nightmares that plagued
him, I wouldn't have wanted to help either. I am glad
that the author helped him to heal and find love out
his own.
The story ended with two of the characters starting
something between each other that may lead to a
sequel on them. However, the author answered all
questions pertaining to Daniel. The readers will not be
lost but become captured in the story line and hang
on to every word. I recommend this book to all
readers who love a tale of suspense, romance, lust,
and desire.
Tragedy, Lust & Destiny by Navi' Robins
This was a very interesting book. The title basically
summarized the book for you and it's perfect for the
content of the story. It piqued my interest so it'll grab
the attention of other readers. The book cover is nice
and basic. It gives a glimpse of the content coming.
Bitter Sweet by Jonas Brinkley
The book is filled with poems that touch on things
such as slavery. African American women, love, etc.
There were no errors identified in this book. All
poems flowed naturally together and touched on
different topics. Some made you think a little more
than others.
The introduction of the story was interesting to say
the least. It gave an insight into the plot but did not
reveal the story too much. The plot of the story
focused on a Doctor who went to another Africa to
help save lives of the Sudanese people. While down in
Africa, he stumbled into some of their troubles that
scarred him beyond repair. Shortly after, the Sudanese
government needed the doctors help to solve some
crimes. He resisted in the beginning but a couple of
events change his mind.
For the life of me, I couldn't understand what the
cover or title had to do with the book. I know there is
a poem within the book with the title Bitter Sweet but
I don't know if that's supposed to be the focal point of
the book. However, if it is, there needs to be
something more identifying on the co ver.
The storyline was more than believable. It will remind
the reader of an episode from Law and Order: SVU,
just more explosive, detailed and intense. The book
showed less than ten main characters and they all
were introduced very well. They all played a role that
Recommendations for this book are to individuals who
enjoy poetry or spoken word and who are at least
teenagers, being that some of the poems discuss a
sexual topic.
