Reviews

Andre and Sade Peters have been happily married for some time now with two beautiful children, Andre and Andrea. Andre was the perfect husband and father and had many good accomplishments in life that evidently were not enough for him. Sade loves Andre with all her heart. In fact, Andre was the one and only man she has been with. One dreadful evening changes Sade and Andre's life dramatically that leaves the reader stunned. <br /><br />&quot;Consequences&quot; by Linda R. Herman is one of the most exciting and intriguing novels I've read this year. Linda keeps smacking the reader in the face with one incident after another, creating much suspense throughout the entire novel. Linda engrosses the reader into the world of HIV and AIDS and the severity of this disease among African Americans. I definitely recommend this book to all readers because it is definitely a must read novel! <br /><br />I enjoyed every page in this novel and will continue to be a faithful reader to Linda R. Herman. Linda creates the most suspenseful and inspiring novels that always grasp my attention. Keep up the good work! <br /><br />Reviewed by: Tekisha/OOSA Online Book Club
