A good habit to pick up
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Reading Lois Battle's "Habit of the Blood" you'll be transported to the lush Caribbean, underneath of which simmers social and political unrest. This is the story of Ceci Baron, a 30-something with wanderlust and a prestigious family pedigree. After years of travelling, she returns to her native Jamaica to face up to family issues and become reacquainted with the love of her life.There are several interesting story threads, from Ceci's dysfunctional fmaily to her taboo romance with one of Jamaica's prominent leaders. Battle writes wonderful discriptions of Jamaica and very convincing dialogue.
