Summary: Strange Kind of Love
Comment: The Honey Well was a one day read, You can't put it down. I found myself turning pages to see how Queen Esther was going to continue to pimp her daughter Arnell. All in the name of love.A excellent novel and the ending was unpredictable. A great book club selection.The story line will make you laugh, cry and so angry. I read Shades of Jade enjoyed it very much,but The Honey Well is the best I've read this year.

Summary: Outstanding Page Turner
Comment: The Honey Well by Gloria Mallette
How do you feel towards your mother who prostituted you at the sweet age of sixteen? How would you feel about yourself if seventeen years later you're still allowing the prostitution? Arnell Rayford's mother Esther; affectionately known at The Honey Well as "Queen Esther" manipulated her daughter Arnell into prostitution and kept her obedient by blackmailing her.
The book opens with a beautiful poem called Baby Girl, written by the author herself. The poem in its entirety was wonderful but for me this one sentence jumped right off the page and grabbed my heart. "For you, baby girl, are born with something more precious than the golden sweet honey made by the honey bees." That one piece was the basis of the book.
Gloria Mallette has done it again, another page turning success with a huge message. It wasn't until after reading the last 60 or so pages that I realized my body was tense. Ms. Mallette draws you so far into the story you will forget your surroundings and follow your emotions smack dead into the character lives. Kudos to you for such a strong and rich story.

Summary: This book is riveting!!!!!
Comment: What do you do when you are so devoted to your mother it means losing your own dignity and self respect? Those are the questions that Arnell has to answer when her own mother makes her prostitute for money. Despite the desire to get out, her mother keeps finding ways to blackmail her and make her feel guilty for wanting her own life instead of the life her mother carved for her. Her mother is the mother you love to hate. She is greedy, selfish and just a terrible person. You want to reach into the pages and tell Arnell "run, run, run and don't look back". This book shows you how low self esteem will have you believe anything, and makes you question where does devotion to your own loved ones end? This book is a page turner!!!!
