Sisterhood

An absorbing, well-written tale of four African-American women who share the bonds of sisterhood, friendship and loyalty. Due to an event that occured over 10 years ago, they will forever be "linked" together. Completely reflective of the times, places and situations they experienced. I found that I could relate to their friendship and the challenges they faced in their daily lives and especially in their relationships with men.A must read for anyone who has experienced a life changing event and trying to bring closure in an effort to move on with their lives. Provides many other life lessons as well, if you want to know what they are, I STRONGLY suggest you read this book!

LinkAge- An exceptional read ...Reviewer: NECIA N.L.M. WIGGINS from WAUKEGAN, IL USA As a first time author, LB Ransom does an exceptional job creating a novel that flows easily and expertly addresses troubled relationships. LB's development of the three leading characters and their male counterparts examines how a random incident can, and most times will, deter an individual from reaching their full potential. However, with love and dedication anyone can overcome the obstacles that are placed in their way. This book also does a fine job of depicting the experience of attending a HBCU (Historically Black College or University)- the dedication, sister/brotherhood, pride, and discipline that one receives from this type of education is to be remembered and honored. Her knowledge and description of the Louisiana and Chicago areas in her book made it more believable, more real. I would recommend everyone to take the time to read this book and experience the soul cleansing one will experience after reading this book.LB, you have done an EXCELLENT job and Noire Book Club thanks you for taking the time to discuss LinkAge with us.

I found the book very exciting. It's about 4-friends from college that experience something that changes their lives forever.The people within the book will remind you of friends and family, that have gone through similar situations. The chapter seem to flow, because each character had a life of their own.For a first time author LB Ransom packs a big slam dunk with this **** four star book....I can't wait for the sequel book or movie to follow.

FR's LinkAge Review

LinkAge is a novel about human personal interactions. The interactions are related to experiences that most people can identify with. The characters may not consciously be aware of their attempts to erase emotional bondages and to prevent the repetition of past experiences. This is what is so real about the novel....often we as human individuals have not developed the skills to cope thus we often deny and hide behind past experiences which prevent us from moving forward. I give the author 4 stars for this, her first novel.
