Kinfolks

From cover to cover this book is a winner. From the first page I was hooked. There are enough twists and turns to keep the reader intrigued.Patrice and Cherry are a riot.

What do you do when you find out that your child is about to marry their half-sibling? You call off the wedding and go looking for any other kids that the father might have been a sperm donor for. Kinfolks is an entertaining and compelling read with a strong social message that takes us into the lives of Patrice and Cherry as they go on a venture to find the other mothers and offspring of one Gene Greene. Life in the ‘60s was made for peace, love and casual sex…but some 20/30 years later when the results begin to rear their heads in friends and significant others not realizing they’re related its time to take action before an accident happens. If you’re looking for a well-written, solid read with colorful characters and an enlightening storyline then look no further than Kinfolks by Kristen Lattany.

This book was a joy to read, while I first thought the plot came a little too fast, as I continued to read, I realized I didn't know what the plot really was. The bond between the Patrice and Cherry reminded me of my older sister and her girlfriends. The women in the book handled the issue with grace and maturity, no kiddy, catfights. (As seen on the raunchy talk shows.)You go ladies! While this book is a work of fiction, it shadowed my own life. I have recently located my 'kinfolk' and the initial reactions were welcoming.As a child, I couldn't understand why my Dad would greet our friends with the question, "Who are your folks?" I just thought it was because he knew everybody, and he does.We later found out the reason, it was to make sure we were not kinfolks.I'm looking forward to reading other books by Kristin Hunter Lattany.

THIS BOOK WAS GREAT I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO READING SOME OF THE OTHER BOOKS MRS.HUNTER-LATTANY HAS WRITTEN.YOU MUST GET THIS BOOK IT WILL HAVE YOU LAUGHING,CRYING,AND WISHING YOU WERE THERE...
