Excellent Story
I read this book when I was a child, then later on as an adult. The story is rich in details about the time period. When my kids were growing up, it became tradition to read it through the month of December.
To me the story teaches that it's never too late to have a change in heart, to learn to appreciate those around us.

Fabulously rich tale about success and loss
This was an unexpected treasure I came across. The language is rich and the story is heartfelt over whether success is truly a positive. The characters of Odelle, Olive and Theresa are wonderfully full and vibrant, and the end tales of the latter are both shocking and moving. One of the most immersive books I've read this year, and Cathy Tyson does a great job in bringing the characters to life.

Black created a wondrously fascinating world, here. It's a fast-paced story, rich in description. But I felt emotionally detached from the characters; the romance, friendships, and betrayals all fell flat on me.
