"A New Season:  The Fortunes of Blues and Blessings Book II"  by Karen Sloan-Brown

What I loved from the read....

This is this author's second novel that continues on from 'The Fortunes of Blues and Blessing' that was truly a amazing read and now we have her next novel.... "A New Season:  The Fortunes of Blues and Blessing Book II that was also a good historical read.  Even though this is a fictional  read it still has some history that does ring so truthful  in what what going on in our country at that present time.  I really loved how this author was able to present to the reader such a story line with such interesting characters that were well developed, well portrayed and believable that flowed so well in this well told story.  I found that I was not able to put this novel down until the end.  This story really starts from this author's first novel and this 'book 2' will put the icing on it all explaining so much that you will feel caught up in this intriguing and captivating read. I would definitely recommend the reader to read the first novel because it explains so much that had happened earlier in the present story.   I do not want to spoil any of this story other than to say you will have to pick up the amazing read to see for yourself how well this author brings it all out to the reader.  Very well done to the author.  You  have truly written two amazing interesting reads!
