Negative Positive
Title: Average...
Review: Picked this book up in a bargain bin several years ago. Hadn't heard of the author, in fact haven't heard much since, but thought I'd give it a try. Unfortunately, I was disappointed.While I did dedicate the time to finish the book, mainly because I really wanted to know how it would all end up; I just wasn't that impressed with the overall story. Judging by the description on the back I thought it would be much more exciting and worthwhile than I felt it ended up.I certainly can appreciate the point the story was trying to get across, about how life used to be in the south for blacks. And while I did find the two main characters pretty entertaining at times- I just felt the entire story and cast fell short for me. It was not very suspenseful or exciting or even what I felt "all that deep". I would not recommend this book to a friend...
