Coriandré Lawrence | 1 comments Hello to Diane and all the members of this group,

I find goodreads to be a wonderful place for true literature enthusiasts. And I do hope it is suitable to recommend my book DIVINE RIGHTS for those looking for a Jamaican novel. Its about Jamaica in the year 2160.

So I request my list of countries? Well, I'd like six very soon to join this wonderful journey. I hope you all will read my work and enter my Jamaican epic!

Greatness,
Coriandre Lawrence
Author of DIVINE RIGHTS
