Janice is a whole different story from the rest of her friends she wants so mch and tries to hard to get it instead of just taking things slow and put her trust in herself and the man that she loves she would have been alright. She drives herself crazy and just can't take it anymore.
If you loved Butter Scotch Blues you will definitely love Some n Sunday this is an excellent book. Some Sunday really shows the real meaning about the importance of having outside support as well as support from family and friends.

Summary: The Girls Are Back!
Comment: Some Sunday is Margaret Johnson-Hodge's eagerly awaited sequel to Butterscotch Blues. Some Sunday continues the story of Sandy Hutchinson, as Johnson-Hodge revisits the lives of Sandy and her three best friends, Martha, Britney and Janice.
As the story opens, Sandy is still battling life without Adrian and while she's wary of love she realizes that she's still alive and that life must go on. But will she succumb to Adrian's brother, Winston or will she give handyman, Randall a chance? In the meantime, Sandy's friends are experiencing their share of ups and downs in the game of life as they dare to follow their hearts but maintain their wit. Brittany is dealing with being a stay at-home mom and wife, and while she has everything she's ever wanted, financial woes have her second guessing whether or not it's the right time to be thinking about increasing her household. Janice is dating the man of her dreams, Cliff(Sandy's brother), but her insecurities are quickly becoming demons and might overtake what's left of her relationship. And Martha is still the ultimate career woman but as the biological clock ticks, she realizes that she wants more and wonders if her current beau, Miles, is the ONE.
Once again, Johnson-Hodge does a wonderful job of inviting us into the lives of her characters and having the reader witness up, close and personal the conflict, challenges and decisions that each character will experience as they determine their futures and as they face new challenges, new lessons and new loves on the never-ending journey called life. However, I must admit that I had mixed feelings about Some Sunday. I so thoroughly enjoyed Butterscotch Blues that I really didn't want a sequel...I wanted well enough left alone. On the positive, I liked that Some Sunday seemed to provide more balance and attention to the four characters and that it was everyone's story rather than just Sandy's. However, I didn't get the same warm, engaging, riveting, poignant feel that I experienced with Butterscotch Blues. While each character had grown, they were also more gritty, edgy, sarcastic and sometimes the friendships weren't even warm or inviting. But then I guess the hard knocks of life sometimes has a funny way of creeping up on you and knocking off the rose-colored glasses. As a reader, I'm glad to have had the privilege to read both Butterscotch Blues and Some Sunday...but...now I'm ready for something different from this talented and creative writer. I believe that Some Sunday has finally brought closure to Sandy and the girls and, as such, I anxiously await and look forward to new characters and storylines from Ms. Johnson-Hodge.

Summary: Who we are........ and who we yet to become.................
Comment: OH MY.........
This sequel was perfect from start to finish. Margaret Johnson-Hodge does a splendid job picking up the pieces of our 4 ladies.
Sandy...a new widow, who falls for the comforts of her brother-in-law in order to safe guard herself from the hurt of loving the handy man Randall whose fear has him running from her.
Masterful Martha...the brillant A.D.A finally finds out that she can't live in a bottle and she wants more than her badge and Calvin is just the man to give it to her.
Janice...a crazy beauty finally realizes that she isn't okay and gets the help she needs in order to finally become a whole person
Big Britany...courageous, pregnant, and with a newly gained attitude and wits learns to hold it all together, home, hubby, health, and baby
These women are all learning to clean out the clutter that has plagued their lives and are slowly working in order to get to the good part. I didn't cry in this book but I was thrilled that "my girls" are moving full circle.
