To Handcuff Lightning is an excellent story. It's very easy to relate to the characters because everyone has "special" family members. The author even included footnotes to help translate some of the terminology. The ending truly caught me off guard. I can't wait for part two.
Lightning Strikes in This Place
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
In the tradition of great Southern writers, K.D. Hoskins offers an authentic look into the lives of mid-20th century Black women who migrate from Georgia to Ohio and must struggle to adjust. Truth ultimately triumphs whether it comes from the wizened mouth of a great grandma or the fingered pages of the family bible. This book sets you quickly in the midst of a family that you recognize from your own and both cherish and abhor. The story must continue . . .

I started this book and read straight through the night until I was done. I couldn't put it down. The author was able to inject humor into some very hard times. The only problem is I didn't want it to end. I hope she is working on the sequel because I am waiting...
