review 1: Well, I bought this book solely because of the title. I'm a fairly new Sarasota resident, and the Tamiami Trail is a part of my every day drive. So, my natural curiosity got the better of me. I'll admit, after making my way through page 1, I almost deleted the book. Ugh...that first page was hard to get through! But, I'm glad I kept reading. The writing style became more relaxed, and I was able to enjoy the story as well as get a feel for what Sarasota used to be. Not knowing much about gypsies left me more than a little skeptical. So, my skepticism and page 1 kept me from rating this higher.
review 2: I PICKED THIS BOOK BECAUSE OF THE TITLE, THE TAMIAMI TRAIL HAS HAD MANY VIOLENT THINGS HAPPEN ON IT. WHAT I HAVE READ WERE TRUE OCCURENCES, THIS IS FICTION . .
... more. I THINK. IT WAS A VERY INTERESTING STORY LINE FILLED WITH EVERYTHING I LIKE A LITTLE ROMANCE, A BIT MYSTICAL AND A WHOLE LOT OF MURDER MYSTERY. I ENJOYED HOW THE AUTHOR GOT MY INTEREST ON THE FIRST FEW PAGES, KEPT IT TILL THE VERY END TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT. LOVE THE OLD PHOTO'S SCATTERED THROUGH-OUT THE BOOK, THAT WAS A BRILLANT TOUCH. THIS WAS A GREAT WAY TO SPEND MY HAZY-DAZY-LAZY SUNDAY. GREAT! ;D less
