review 1: This series of vignettes of several families who live in the Ivory Coast had such potential. But, the storylines are fractured and the changes abrupt. I found it hard to follow along because of the frequent changes. Many aspects of these characters' lives were left unexplained, too. If this is part of a series I wish I had known in advance so I could've started at the beginning. Maybe, then, the issues I have with the storytelling wouldn't be so problematic.
review 2: Not as good as the first volume but still a nice read anyway. I'm enjoying this series so far but I'm a bit concerned that the amount of story does not really justify the high cost of each volume. Although I must admit, they look really good printed on what feels like high-quality paper stock... more and bound in gorgeous hardcovers. I'm still undecided on whether I'll get the next few volumes because of the price. Maybe if they go on sale... less
