Rating: Summary: Almost, but not quite Review: Between Friends is a saccharine portrayal of the "friendship" between a biracial woman and a white woman, and their attraction to the same man. Despite the racial slurs and slights that Dallas has suffered from her white friend through the years, they are "best friends," which I found unbelievable. This does not read like a story which evolved on its own, but rather like a morality play dressed up as a story with characters built in to fit the author's message. The main characters are, of course, free from racial prejudice, while the rest of the world is biased and unfair. However, she does make some interesting points, so I gave it an E for effort.
Rating: Summary: Very Disappointing Review: I am a big FAN of Ms. Kitt's and anxiously awaited her new novel; however, I am disappointed with her latest. I too find the story to be unbelieveable. Her previous novel, "Significant Others," is by far her best work to date. I can relate to the characters in that book and find it most entertaining and believable, so much so, that I have reread the book 5 times. Sorry Ms. Kitt but you missed the mark on this novel.
Rating: Summary: Sandra's Gone and Done it Again! Review: I don't know how she does it but whenever I read any of her books, I can actually SEE the action in my head like a movie; she writes THAT clearly and concisely! Plus, no matter WHO the guy is, I always manage to wind up getting a "crush" on that character! Yup, no doubt! Sandra Kitt IS my all-time favorite author---hands down!
Rating: Summary: Great Story and beautiful characters in the story Review: I enjoyed the book very much. The story is no different then what some people out here in socity have to face everyday. It show how love can conqure a lot of things if you let it. The relationship between the characters are better then reading a romance book. I love the book and I think you should read it, you might be surprise that you won't put it down. Sandra Kitt is a good writer.
Rating: Summary: This book is about two friends testing their relationship. Review: I feel this book was very good because it really has a person wondering about friendships and relationships between friends & lovers, and is it worth the testing.
Rating: Summary: It could be better. Review: I felt that the characters were not really realistic, and needed more flavor in the writing. The two characters that were supposed to be best friends acted as if they were complete strangers wanting the same man. But from the beginning of the book you could tell who the man in the middle really wanted.
Rating: Summary: NOT TOO BAD..... Review: I FOUND THIS BOOK TO BE ALRIGHT. I'VE READ BETTER AND WORSE. I THINK SANDRA DID A GOOD JOB IN KEEPING THE READER CURIOUS AS TO WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH ALEX AND MEGAN'S FATHER. I SAY TRY AND READ IT IT JUST MAY HOLD YOUR ATTENTION
Rating: Summary: WHAT A LET DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: I have read other Sandra Kitt books - and I was very disappointed with this one. It just seemed as though something was missing. The book moved very slow and then all of a sudden - she crammed everything into one chapter at the end. I won't say that I won't read any of her books again - because anyone can make a mistake but I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.
Rating: Summary: It was decent Review: I have read other works by Sandra Kitt and I must say this one was a bit less than I expected but it was still very intersting. The storyline was good and I liked the characters( for the most part). My problem was that alot of the stuff in the book was unrealistic. It reminded me too much of a soap opera, especially with the ending. It needed to be more down to earth. However the whole romance scene wasn't bad.
Rating: Summary: A Rare Classic for Today's Romantic Times Review: I Mary Mendez, was enthralled and delighted to read such a beautiful romantic saga. Enriched in love and much understanding was found in every paragraph of every page. Love so intricately described since King Salomon. My husband found me so engrossed, he too got caught up in reading 1 page; and he took the book when I was finish reading for the second time. Chico came back two days later, was blown away! My husband never, never, never reads romantic novel. Ms. Kitt is a literary contemporary Charlotte Bronte of our time. I truly hope BET new owners bring "Between Friends" and "The Color of Love" to the Cable or the Silver screen. There are truly worthwhile books.
