Rating: Summary: A Family Reunion Review: This is one of the best books I have read. Of course, I am definitely a Brenda Jackson fan because she is one of the best writer's ever. This book has an excellent plot and the characters are all people I would like to get to know. Get this book readers, it is well worth the time and money.
Rating: Summary: Brenda,Brenda,Brenda! Review: What can I say this book was fabulous. I felt like I personally knew each and every one of the characters because someone in my family is just like them. I felt pulled into each situation because the storyline was interesting and realistic. I have come to expect nothing less from Ms.Jackson. The love and bond between the family members, especially Poppa Ethan and the younger members of the family is especially touching. This book is an easy and light hearted read but still has the ability to make your mind wander back to your last family reunion or the cousin you haven't called in a while. Ms.Jackson does it again.
Rating: Summary: WONDERFUL.........ABSLOUTELY WONDERFUL! Review: Wow! Was Brenda writing about my family? So mnay times as I was reading this book, I had to stop and ask my self, is she talking about Cousin So-n-so or Uncle What's-his-name? :) This is a wonderful story of the true love that still exisits in African-American families. The bonds of true love and families are sometimes broken but Mrs. Jackson tells a story of how they can be mended together, to be stronger than ever. I could relate to a good bit that was going on in the book, for I've personally lived it. From Taye, to Alexia, to Rae.......I've been there. I laughed and yes, I cried as well. If you grew up in a loving family, especially with loving grandparents, as I did, this will be a trip down memory lane. Once that you'll truly enjoy. If you haven't gotten the book yet, don't hesitate. BUY IT! NOW! You will not be sorry. I just wish there were more African-American families like the Bennets today. We are not perfect people but we are loving people as evident in this book. Keep up the good work, Brenda. May God forever bless you as you continue to provide us with wonderful reads!
