Summary: A Great Read!
Review: Glenda Langley tells a great story using Monique, a career waitress at Skagg's B-B-Q in Mesquite Springs, as her narrator. Complete with a Texas drawl and a sense of humor that won't quit, Monique tells of the troubles that result when Clairesse, a beautiful young fellow waitress, falls in love with Bubba, a young man who unwittingly gets involved with a group of racists. Look for an unexpected twist. It will sneak up on you. It's a book you won't be able to put down, full of color and conflicting sentiments of folks in a small Texas town who must grapple with the realities of a murder that is the result of racial prejudice. Murder in Mesquite Springs is a fast, engrossing read. Don't miss it.

Review: I read this book in one sitting. The plot is well crafted. The story is fast paced. And there's a lot of subtle humor in it. Having lived in Texas, I recognized personality traits from various characters in the book. I could see the images in my head as Monique telling the story. Gripping! And entertaining. It's a great book. Perfect for a long plane trip!

Summary: Great Characters!
Review: This is a great read and a very enjoyable ride! I enjoyed the story, but even more, I genuinely liked the characters. They really came to life for me. While I am a South Texan, I can assure you that you don't need to be one yourself to enjoy this book. It was all too easy to read this book in one sitting. The pace made for a very enjoyable Sunday. I can't wait for the next from this author.
