Review:
"Wondah" by Lakisha Johnson
My Opinion:
All that is left to say after reading 'Wondah' is wow...what a good read that this person had to go through to get to the end, and that was being above to forgive. To receive what Wondah got from her husband on her fifth birthday was just sad and unbelievable. With Wondah being a marriage counselor, this still didn't prepare Wondah for all she went through from the hurt and anger that surrounded her physically and emotionally. However, after Wondah turned to the only one who could help her and she could forgive him, things went better for her. What got me was Harvey's reasoning for him wanting a divorce! That left me shaking my head...and he was a deacon in the church? 'Wondah' is a good read where this author does another beautiful job of bringing out this story to the reader that I am sure can be relatable in many ways.
