Book Reviews of She Slipped and Fell
Book Review: " A Love Story Is A Love Story...Regardless Of Sexual Preference"
Summary: 5 Stars
This novel was 263 pages of a well-used tree!!
This is the first novel that I have read by Shonda, and I was impressed.
She had me hooked from the very first words, which for me (an avid book reader) is hard to do!!!
She did an excellent job penning a story about 2 beautiful spirited individuals and their struggle to exist in a world that denounces them because of their sexual preference. I will say that the story is about 2 lesbians...only because we exist in a world that still justifies treating PEOPLE like 2nd citizens and makes judgments that they are not in position to make. I say the story is about 2 lesbians...only because Shonda touches on an important issue that plagues our society, and in her novel, she sets a stage of confidences amidst the chaos for people labeled because of their sexual preference. Only for those reasons will I mention that the story was about 2 lesbians. Otherwise, I wouldn't care to mention it at all.
[No Spoiler Alert!! This review will not ruin it for those who haven't read it yet!!!]
THE STORY IS ABOUT 2 PEOPLE WHO "SLIPPED AND FELL" IN LOVE, AND THE OBSTACLES THEY HAD TO ENDURE TO OVERCOME HURDLES IN THEIR WAY OF EMBRACING THAT LOVE!!!
RECOMMENDATION: Get the book!!!
I was able to connect to the characters and the raw emotions they felt on this journey through life. I could see the characters' faces in my mind and the places they were in, in the book. I was not inundated with pointless, trashy sex-scenes reflective of promiscuous and self-destructive behavior. The "love-making" scenes were vital and imperative to the penning of a great novel...causing heat to rise in my delta.
It was realistic and encouraging...relevant and catching...necessary and appreciated.
The twists and turns added the "page-tuner" effect that I so thoroughly enjoy when I read a novel. I READ THE BOOK IN HOURS...LITERALLY!!! I had to keep my eyes from wandering to the next page before I finished reading the one I was on. And for most readers, I'm sure the ending was wind-blowing. I LOVE IT THROUGH AND THROUGH!!!
BUY IT....READ IT....REVIEW IT....RECOMMEND IT!!
5 Stars From Me!!
"Chrystal Clear"...Here I Come!!!
