Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Ummm
Review: I loved the title of this book and why it was titled "Cup of Love" I hope I have my cup filled I do believe so.

Cup of Love takes some time to get through, but once the story starts Franklin doesn't stop.

Don't read this b/c you enjoyed Fed Up With The Fanny, the stories are very different, read it b/c you like Franklins writing skills.

My favorite character in the book was Mz Melba she was truly an angel, she walked into Vance and Artise life not when they wanted her to but when they needed her.

This book has dirty politicians, the bi-... rich, them that's not and wanna get, and those fighting with demons in their closet. Each one of those folks are looking for their very own Filled to the Brin "Cup of Love"

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: captivating
Review: I found the book very interesting, it kept me reading. I finished the book in three days, because I was always left anticipating the next scene. I must say the ending also threw me for a loop, but I was a little disappointed because I was looking for a little more detail in the conclusion. It seems that it was rushed, unless, we should expect a sequel. Overall, I was very quite pleased.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Enjoyable!
Review: Although I found Mr. White's latest novel somewhat different than his first novel, I must admit, it was a good read. There was some love, some pain, some deception, some growth and much, much more. The characters are REAL and we all know at least one of them and can relate. Can't say who was my favorite character because they were all good in their own right. As for the story.......at times, it was so heart felt and the title (Cup of Love).....it is oh so fitting.

If you're looking for another Fed Up......grow a little with the author and enjoy this book just as much.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Spiritually Moving...
Review: Franklin White has done it again!! A Cup of Love is absolutely moving! The way he mixed spiritual and "worldly" issues combined in this book could make a someone think twice. Once I started reading Cup of Love, I started feeling myself within the book. The issues between Vance and Artise is something I'm sure all can relate too. Oh, but let's not forget about Ethan. We all know someone like him. I didn't like his character too much in the beginning but when those babies died, I really felt for him. Even the issue's between Artise and her Mother was real. I think this book is especially important because it also leaves a spritual impact on those who believe. The bible verses, prayer quotes all kept us on our toes. I give all praise for Franklin White because not many authors can "flip" their writing styles like that. (compared to Fed Up With The Fanny.) I can't wait to see what he has lined up next...

Excellent...!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: True Love
Review: This book reals gives insight on various types of love. The reader will go from thinking about self love, community love, to the love of your life. It is not only a touching tale but humorous.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Smooth, Enjoyable Read
Review: (originally posted November 6, 1999)

From beginning to end, this novel captured my attention as Franklin White added a Cup of Good Old-Fashioned Love with scandal, adversity and tragedy. The mix was well done, and the end result was deliciously sweet.

Cup of Love is well-written and enlightening. The drama interspersed with spirituality create a credible and interesting story of friends and family who learn that love conquers all! --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cup of Love is wonderful
Review: Franklin White did a great job of keeping the readers interest. I truly enjoyed the sory line and the characters. This is a must read. I also enjoyed "Fed Up With Fanny" -- check out all of his books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This "CUP OF LOVE" definitely runnith over!
Review: Here is a successfully plotted novel that combines the issues of relationships with the spiritual overtones placed to give the book a more based feeling and a slice of reality for good measure. Follow the often broken relationship of Vance and Artise to see if they can go the distance love has set in front of them, moreso, if Vance can fight the temptations offered by other females. Watch if Tassha can forgive Ethan's running out on their relationship and his return during her romance with a highly-regarded public official. Add the evil Ronald Tenner, the grounded Stubblefield couple, Casey and Kyle, the secondary, yet important players in this drama, and you have one soap opera on your hands. Excellent second offering, Mr. White!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Why would anyone give this five stars?
Review: Incredibly redundant. Preachy. Unrealistic. Weak plot. Bad poetry. Sappy. The end was obviously rushed. Almost every character "saw the light." Right.

This book was nothing but one big sermon. If it weren't for the fact that I read fast, I wouldn't have bothered to finish.
