Summary: A moving book with insights on true love and a great plot.
Comment: The novel Rich in Love by Josephine Humphreys is a great book filled with many answers to the mysterious feelings of growing adolescents. The character Lucille encompasses the essence of being an adolescent when dealing with the crises of her life. With mood swings, unexplained forceful reactions, and raging hormones, it's almost as if teenagers are reading a book about their own life. Most notable in the book is Lucille's view on love and how it should be handled. She has love for everything, but her true, secret love is Billy McQueen. Although she has had no physical pleasure with Billy, Lucille loves everything about him with every inch of her body. She appreciates all that he does, and notices several qualities which remain hidden to others. The reader watches as Lucille's love grows, and the reader is informed of all the feelings that she has. Lucille's love soon reaches the breaking point and evenually Billy seems to fall victim to its grasp. The result is adultery. This catches the reader off guard with just the thought of the age differential between the two. However, this incident brings Lucille into a new reality or a coming of age, where she realizes that she will never be with Billy. She knows that she has experienced love to its fullest and is secure enough and mature enough now, to handle the real world.

Summary: A book that sparked my intrest.
Comment: I was asigned to read this book in my English class, and most of the books have trouble finishing the books. I had no problems finishing the book Rich in Love. I like reading a book that gave me a different perspective on a teenage life. Most people write about the normal teenage life, but not Josehpine Humphreys. She draws you into this book and you do not want to put it down. I liked how she turned the role of parents and teenagers on the characters Lucille and Warren. Lucille the daughter takes on the role of the care giver when her mom leaves and her dad needs someone to take care of him. I recommend this book. It give you a whole new perspective on what some peoples lives are like.
