Summary: Great concept, voices and story not strong enough to support
Review: The thought of the progeny of a philandering man and his paramours reaching out to one another is an interesting concept but TOTALLY unbelievable. There's no way that two life long friends would have children by the same man and not know it.
The "voices" of the different characters were not distinct and the childrens voices were just not credible. The only character I liked was Gene and there wasn't enough of him in the story.
If I read any more works by this writer it will be as a borrowed book from the library.

Summary: Pages Readers Group Reads Kinfolks
Review: This book is an easy read. It really flows with the subject. I would have never thought all of these different families could get together and be friendly and cordial to one another. Aisha and Saint when they found out they were brother and sister, they never discuss their relationship anymore. How could Cherry and Patrice best friends never discuss they slept with the same man. Seems to me the money they raised should have gone on their bills. It was good to see Cherry found a nice man. But I just dont see women getting together finding their lovers children.

Summary: Something I Would Have Done
Review: This book was a joy to read, while I first thought the plot came a little too fast, as I continued to read, I realized I didn't know what the plot really was. The bond between the Patrice and Cherry reminded me of my older sister and her girlfriends. The women in the book handled the issue with grace and maturity, no kiddy, catfights. (As seen on the raunchy talk shows.)You go ladies! While this book is a work of fiction, it shadowed my own life. I have recently located my 'kinfolk' and the initial reactions were welcoming.As a child, I couldn't understand why my Dad would greet our friends with the question, "Who are your folks?" I just thought it was because he knew everybody, and he does. We later found out the reason, it was to make sure we were not kinfolks. I'm looking forward to reading other books by Kristin Hunter Lattany.

Summary: Free Love + I Don't Need a Husband = A Mess!
Review: What do you do when you find out that your child is about to marry their half-sibling? You call off the wedding and go looking for any other kids that the father might have been a sperm donor for. Kinfolks is an entertaining and compelling read with a strong social message that takes us into the lives of Patrice and Cherry as they go on a venture to find the other mothers and offspring of one Gene Greene. Life in the ‘60s was made for peace, love and casual sex…but some 20/30 years later when the results begin to rear their heads in friends and significant others not realizing they’re related its time to take action before an accident happens. If you’re looking for a well-written, solid read with colorful characters and an enlightening storyline then look no further than Kinfolks by Kristen Lattany.
