Beulah’s Jewels, by
Charlene Tate, is a spicy true to life biography type Novel that dates back to
Reading this reminded
me of some of my family members back in the day and a time where children knew
they had better leave the room when grown folks were talking. This story at the
very least and is chock full of humor. It is also free flowing with its fair
share of profanity, which I understand is needed to get the full feel of Beulah
and the other characters.
However being an
editor, I found it hard to take my editors cap off. Normally editing errors in
a review are not mentioned unless they interrupt the flow of the story line.
There were several instances where the story line didn’t seem to flow. In other
instances, paragraphs were nearly page long, as well as improper transitions
between chapters. A few chapters transitioned without titles. There were also
times that I could not figure out if the author was referring to Juanita or
Beulah.
The book is a good
story but I just couldn't get past the editing or lack of. I certainly do
anticipate the author’s next story,
