review 1: Story was ok. Flowed steadily but had me annoyed in context. Story of 3 sisters, one of whom is a runaway bride almost married twice before, about to marry; 1 has been married 4 times; the eldest married for almost 25 years. Charmaine was my favorite sister and the one I respected the most for not allowing someone else decide her destiny. Evelyn annoyed me for her initial stance with Kenny. Far too often women let the husband decide the fate of the relationship and that's exactly what she was doing...leaving it up to him to decide how their story would end. Beverly was just confused and using everyone elses marriage as the barometer to measure her own .
review 2: Sisters & Husbands by Connie Briscoe is the sequel to Sisters & Lovers, which I read a very l
... moreong time ago. Some things came back to me but unlike Midnight and The Coldest Winter Ever by Sister Souljah, I did not feel the need to go pull down the first book. Sisters & Husbands was strong enough to stand on it's own without the prior history.The book picks up with younger sister Beverly preparing for her marriage. Beverly, who has a history of getting cold feet, has already called off two weddings, and just when she thinks the third time will be the charm, all hell breaks loose causing her to wonder how realistic is it to have a successful marriage.Although nothing in life is guaranteed, Ms. Briscoe does cause us to pause and look at marriage from a different perspective. It takes hard work and total committment from both parties, even then there are no guarantees.Sisters & Husbands didn't have any "wow" moments for me but it was a very entertaining read that I thoroughly enjoyed. less
