Rating:  Summary: I loved this book Review: This book was the ultimate test of Love. I don't know if I could have done it like the main character did it, but I have to respect her steadfastness in love. I truly fell in love with this book. I liked the girlfriends, the way the author took me from one scene to the next, smoothly. This book is a good read.I highly recommend it.
Rating:  Summary: Your hearts desires/and then you can't...................... Review: This is amongst the greatest books I've read. It deals with very real issues, AIDS, the color syndrome amongst blacks, love, marriage, friendship, and loneliness. 4 friends who literally transform before you. Sandy after being involved in a so I won't be alone relationship finally gets the picture and meets Adrian who opens her eyes to the beauty of being a beautiful dark skin black and opens her mind to the reality of safe sex and her heart to an abiding love. Janice the friend we all have who can't seem to get that she keeps settling and giving way too much of herself in these one sided relationships finally gets some guts, a brain and a real man. Martha the money-making sistah whose standards are set entirely too high can't get a man so she is turning into a bitter depressing drunk who sees that she has to let it be and finally gets a man who is intelligent enough to do whatever he chooses but he does things to impress self. Britney who has weight and low self esteem issues. Finds a sponsor who shows her love isn't always a size 6 and she begins to take more pride in herself. It's so much more it's about the power of an abiding love! As you read you're like okay this is it do it and then it's too late they break up she can't cope and when finally all the cards are on the table and ... I am still crying! This is the first book I've read by Margaret Johnson-Hodge I will be checking out her other ones real soon.
Rating:  Summary: Frienship, Sisterhood and Love Review: This was the first time I read a book by Ms. Johnson-Hodge and I could kick myself for waiting so long. What a wonderful story of friendship, sisterhood and love. I don't know if I could have married Adrian but I was cheering for Sandy all the way! I even got teary-eyed when Adrian died. I could not put this book down for one minute. Thanks Ms. Johnson-Hodge for a wonderful story! I have already purchased Some Sunday and can't wait to start reading it!
