Raymond Mathiesen (raymondmathiesen) | 3 comments Crimson Footprints by Shewanda Pugh - Book Review
5 out of 5 stars

The balancing act of life…
Deena Hammond is a 24 year old architect living and working in her home town of Miami, Florida. In some ways Deena is very successful, but she comes from a poor background, and in many ways she is still inextricably tied up with those origins. Her grandmother, Emma Hammond, who brought Deena up, is constantly demanding and never satisfied. Deena’s adult brother Anthony is a small-time criminal, and her sister Lizzie, though still at school, is incorrigibly wayward and seems headed for a disaster of a life. Deena is half African-American and half white and feels that she was never really accepted by the black side of her family when they took her in as a child. In very harrowing circumstances Deena meets Takumi (Tak for short) Tanaka, the son of her world famous, distant and demanding boss Daichi Tanaka. Immediately the personal chemistry and attraction seems right, but everything else between these two people seems impossible. Deena is a mere underling. Should she even be talking to the son of the owner of the business she works for? What is more Deena’s family very much expects her to date a black man. Can these two people overcome the odds and form a friendship, or even the romance they both desire?

Shewanda Pugh’s Crimson Footprints can certainly be classified as a romance; however, it is much more than that. It is a story of class consciousness and racial division. It is about the struggle to find the right equilibrium between work and family, and it is a story about trying to ‘do the right thing’. Most of all, this novel is about balance in all things. We are all different, but we must overcome our resistances and come to the centre ground if we are truly going to be a success in life.

Cloud Walking (Find You in the Dark, #1.5) by A. Meredith Walters was okay! I was hoping for a little more, because I really liked Rachel and Daniel in Find You in the Dark (Find You in the Dark, #1) by A. Meredith Walters . Though overall I think it's a good serious. And Cloud Walking was a quick lighter read to darker story in book #1.

Kate Baggott (httpswwwgoodreadscomkate_baggott) | 23 comments I just re-read, re-wrote and adapted a YA short story for beginning readers (people confronting literacy issues) called Finnegan, His Old Man and Uncle Reeve. I figure if I have done it properly, then it should appeal to all YA readers, not just those with reading issues. You'll have to let me know. Here is the link Finnegan & Sarah Cheng fans! As an experiment in writing for people dealing with literacy issues, I adapted a story for that audience. If I've done it properly, it should appeal to everyone. Here it is http://www.hokustory.com/books/view/510
