What a family!
They stuck by each other until the end and the way the brothers looked after their sister was amazing truly a good story!

Magically wicked
I almost gave up on this book right away because for one, too many characters were being introduced and secondly, it dealt with 'roots'. But then the characters had personalities and the relationships with each other as siblings developed rather quickly and it was like reading about any family with idiosyncrasies. And the whole roots thing was more mystery and speculation that left a lot to the reader's imagination. Truly well done and engaging. I loved the family and how they loved on and supported each other. (Well, for the most part.) Enough twists and drama to make it a page turner but not so suspenseful that you need to put it down for fear of heart palpitations. Very enjoyable read. One star reduced for editing, mostly towards the end.

Entertaining & Exciting
After reading one of her novels I searched for LaVonda & put all her books I que by release date. Her characters are complex at times; they each have their own identity that goes into the storyline. This book was great...a page turner that kept you engaged until the last sentence. That ending tho... left a lot of unanswered questions, I guess we can use our imaginations.

The Supense !
OMG this was such a good. The storyline flowed so well. The suspense from the book had my attention since the lady came to Teresa's lower shop. The things the family had to face after their mothers death was crazy. This was most definitely a edge of the seat read. As a first read by this author I can really say I enjoyed this book.

Secrets
This is one of those books that not everyone is going to like or read because of the content. It was a very interesting story. There is still some things that need to be explained. It would be nice if their was a follow up book. You will see chapter 21 twice but it is 2 different chapters. At the end I was lost on who Frank is.

We are as sick as our secrets🤫
I must admit, it started off real slow and I was almost reluctant to keep going. Whew, glad I did. I enjoyed this book and all the secrets or not of the King family!

Great Story! Ending left unanswered questions
I absolutely loved the story line of this book. I connected with the characters. The ending left me with a lot of unanswered questions. It’s seems to be a lot missing as if not finished. Maybe there’s another part to continue

Amazing
This book was awesome! But the ending was very rushed and seemed unfinished. I would love to hear more about this family in the future!!!

Great Read
This was a great read. I loved the root working and how Teresa was the only one of the ten kids to pick up on it. Great storyline and characters.
