Shadowed Love

Rating:
Summary: Intense depiction of apartheid
Review: After following the characters through so many seemingly insurmountable difficultites, I hope to see a sequel, as I became well acquainted with them, and I want to see what happened after the happy ending.

Rating:
Summary: Spellbinding and enlightening
Review: All too often, the US gets sole blame for racism. Martine Jardin centered Shadowed Love in a society where perhaps even worse injustices have been perpetrated against people of color. The tragedy and brutality of apartheid, as depicted by Jardin, makes every caring person realize that racism continues to be a worldwide problem that wreaks misery and, in the form of so-called ethnic cleansing, causes wars. The reader becomes so deeply involved in the suspenseful plot,that the book is impossible to put down.

Review: I admired Bonny's courage and determination. I felt her disgust at the discrimination and segregation and felt Abe's struggle and pain. Great writer. Tracy K.

Rating:
Summary: Interesting story, Trish MacKay
Review: I agree with one of the other reviewers. I'd like to see a sequel to this book and read how Abe and Bonnie's child/children deal with the interracial issues whilst living in Canada and how they react when they find out the truth about their parents.
