She starts out slowly, setting up the situation and the characters, such as the great grandmothers - Florence Varina, the "high-yellow" southerner, and Ulene Payne, a demented and bitter West Indian. But, once the story established itself and the storyline picked up, I got into the novel around page 88. I liked the flow of the dialogue and the surprise twist ending that brought the novel to an ambiguous but to me, a satisfying close. ( )
