Summary: decent sequel
Review: Some Sunday is the sequel to Butterscotch Blues. Sandy and her friends are back again, trying to make their love life work. Sandy is still trying to get over the death of her husband. One thing I most say about Sandy, she sure move through men pretty fast, to have lost a husband to aids. I throught this was a good sequel, as far as sequels go.

Summary: Some Sunday Reading!
Review: Some Sunday was the story of real life. I like that Ms. Johnson-Hodge could write about real life characters and make them interesting. I don't think that anyone's life is truly exciting and everyday is another journal sharing experience. That is why I liked this novel. In some way or another, I could relate to all the characters. In my present life, Britney, is the most like me and her character seemed to have the most impact on the story for me. Throughout the book she didn't seem to receive the respect and attention that the other women did and then all of a sudden she demanded it, whether "it" came from her friends or her husband. I am glad she found her self-worth in the novel. As for the main character, Sandy, I thought she didn't really deal with her issues and Randall. She never really gave him that piece of her mind that was boiling over or so it seemed. I think a lot of conversations weren't had it the story that should have been. Overall, the novel was well written, but it wasn't a show stopper. I would like to see other stories about other people written by Ms. Margaret Johnson-Hodge.

Summary: Well Written
Review: Some Sunday was worth the wait,a sequel to Butterscotch Blues with Sandy and her girlfriends dealing with their relationships. I was surprised with Sandy and Winston's relatiinship,but in the end Sandy found happiness and I hope Winston did also.A great story about true friends. My favorite character was Britney.

Summary: An absolutely great book!
Review: This book is the sequel to Butterscotch Blues and I loved it just as much.
It's the story of Sandy and how her husband died of AIDS, her friends and their troubles and how she tries to move on with her life. I do suggest you read Butterscotch Blues (it made me cry!) but Some Sunday could definitely be read without reading the prequel.
It's a great story and I hope the author continues it with the story of Sandy and her new guy!

Summary: Good Sunday Reading.
Review: This was an excellent sequel to butterscotch blues. Although it seems as if Sandy will never find true happiness.I would have also liked to have seen Britney's character more developed. Because even though life is not always a bowl of cherries she seems to be the one handling it better than all four of the sister friends. Janice makes you want to come through the pages again and smack her, while Martha is maintaining her life but is battling a horrible addiction. This book still reminds us that our closest friends are sometimes there for you when family is not.

Summary: Accepting Life...
Review: Where does life take you after tragedy strikes? At 34 Sandy found the love of her life and at 36, after only two months of marriage her husband Adrian was gone, from AIDS. Sandy wants to slip out of life, but knows she can't, so she pushes herself forward believing that some Sunday she's going to wake up and everything will be alright again. Girlfriends, Janice, Martha and Britney are still trying to be there for her, but each of them are struggling with their own issues. Though they each have someone in their lives, Britney the least expected of the group has the prize, a home and a family and for the first time, they are all jealous of her. Winston, Adrian's brother is keeping a watchful eye on Sandy, he tells himself it's for his brother. Sandy is aware of Winton's feeling, but when she looks at him, all she sees is Adrian and she doesn't want to get lost in him for the wrong reasons. While struggling to label her feelings for Winston, her body starts to tingle for Randall, a contractor who is remodeling her basement. This is the most alive she has felt since Adrian's death. She wonders if she should tell him the truth and hope he doesn't back away from her and she also wonders what Winston's reaction will be, she doesn't want to hurt him. A good sequel should let the characters grow and Margaret does that with finese, she took these characters to another level. You share each ladies struggles and you share their victories. The characters were so real they seemed to slip inside of you. She presented real issues about addiction, low self esteem and the fear of AIDS, but she never let the drama overshadow the characters. As they reached a new plateau in their lives and in their friendship, you were right there with them. My reaction to this book. AWESOME! Reviewed by aNN

Summary: A Great Sequel
Review: Wow...what a ride! MJH picks up in Some Sunday where Butterscotch Blues leaves us. In Some Sunday, the four friends: Sandy, Britney, Janice, and Martha are dealing with relationships (old and new) and struggling with internal issues ranging from low self esteem, depression, emotional breakdowns, alcoholism, jealousy, and envy among friends.Sandy is dealing with the loss of her husband, Adrian, who died from AIDS and finds herself relying heavily on her brother-in-law, Winston, (the near mirror-image-of-Adrian who's more than willing to offer support and other things) and struggling with her feelings toward Randall, her first outside interest since Adrian's passing. She's on a path of healing and self-discovery that takes many twists and turns. The same path of self-discovery reveals some hidden truths for Martha and Janice...and although extremely painful and candid as it is...each manages to either stand willingly or be dragged before the mirror for self-examination before the therapy can begin. Britney, a mother and wife, comes to realize that she's blessed and is not afraid to acknowledge that despite the circumstances that led her to her current situation. MJH is a relationship master digging beneath the surface and examines the psyche of her characters (both male and female) to give them life and an uncanny realism. This is a great sequel.
