I have read all of Ms. Roz's books and they have touched me in many ways, my personal favorite is ONE BETTER but this one came very, very close. On the humbug why must so many of the women in the book be victims? I Know, I know that in the end things work out for most of them but what about Luella she was a confused whore, and in the end was raped and murderd what kind of @#!* was that????? Did i miss something or was she the only women in the book who had a husband that really loved and cherished her, great children and a marraige that stood the test of time, in my opinion! I wanted to slap Tyme for being such an Aunt Jemimah she made me sick, blind Heffer but in the end i said you GO GIRL! Kahn what can be said about Khan i loved her from begining to end and last but not least Tomiko should have went back to Japan or Africa somewhere anywhere but the hell away from R.C Richardson dont ya think? Whats next Roz i cant wait!!!!!!!!!
