Redemption Song : A Novel

Rating:
Summary: Excellent Author!
Review: I was inspired by this author! Dr. Berry spoke at the Annual Convocation to begin the school year for my district and wowed every teacher, administrator, parent and child with her personal warmth, wit, humor, and insight. I have never laughed and cried so hard at one of these opening meetings in all my years in education. If you want to be inspired and brought to a new level of thinking, buy her books then book her to speak to your group! You will never forget her.

Summary: Cathartic sob producer
Review: After hearing Ms. Berry as the key note speaker at the Texas Elementary Principal's (TEPSA) convention in Austin last week, I was compelled to purchase and read her book. Even though there is a salting of mysticism in the story, the real moral of the novel has to do with life lessons on how to accept yourself for who you are... I sobbed through the last half of the book. Thank goodness the house was empty! If I had known how to reach Ms. Berry and thank her, I would have!

Summary: Love Through the Ages
Review: I have always been interested in literature that touches on my ancestors' beginnings in the USA. Ms. Berry has written a very moving story of a love that transcends the boundaries of time and remembrance. Her memorable characters, Ms. Cozy, Fina and Ross, will take you on a journey back through time, to slavery days and teach you that the power of love is stronger than chains, distance or the passage of years. Together they discover a connection that was foretold generations before any of them were ever born. This is a must read for all lovers of black history and eternal love. Bravo, Bertice!
