A story for anyone who has ever fallen in love,
By Maggie (Clinton Twp., MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Autumn Leaves: Love So Deep (Paperback)
Looking for a relaxing read to take my mind off relationship problems, I nearly randomly chose this novel, and was pleasantly surprised. Victor McGlothin does a wonderful job of working thought-provoking instances into this entertaining story of love and life. The characters are as real as they come, and I can't imagine that any reader would think that it was impossible to connect with any of them. From the vivid descriptions of both their physical and emotional traits, you get to know each in a way that allows you to empathize with their plights and rejoice in their victories. When a love is torn apart, you are just as angry as the person who has found out they have been cheated on, and almost as hurt. When a promising new relationship develops, you rejoice with both characters and wish them the best. And when a young man struggles with the repercussions of a bad decision, you can't help but hope along with him that he will be able to set things straight. Universal themes of love, friendship, and consequences of choices touched home to me on several occasions. As I read, I found myself repeatedly rooting for someone dealing with a common, yet troubling issue that threatened to change their life forever. If I had never been in the situation myself, I could think of an acquaintance who had. The suspense of whether or not any given character would have the resolution that I anticipated kept me from putting this down until I had read it cover to cover. This book manages to provide a touching, emotional story without sacrificing social importance. I laughed, cried, and paused to reflect on my own life. Each character takes you on a journey of self-exploration as they discover what really matters most to them. I would recommend this book to absolutely everyone. The honest portrayal of the consequences rendered by choices, and of love, betrayal, and second chances pulls on your heartstrings while causing you to think about the choices you make in your own life. This was truly a wonderful read.

Autumn Leaves...Love So Deep,
By obgyn31@aol.com - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Autumn Leaves: Love So Deep (Paperback)
When I read the title Autumn Leaves, my perception of what the book was about was totally offbase. Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down. I like the way the author approached the readers on the subject of AIDS. I think it was a well thought out process. I feel that when the subject of AIDS is approached too straightforward people as well as readers tend to lose interest. Victor wrote a great storyline and then incorporated AIDS into it. I only wish more authors were comfortable addressing such delicate issues. AIDS does not discriminate and it was really different to read a book that says...I AM HIV POSITIVE, but I didn't get it from being gay or using drugs. This book says, be careful with whom you sleep with and always use protection. I actually found myself crying out for the victims in the book. I guess I saw their fate before they actually did. This book sends a very powerful message to its readers. Victor keep up the good work and know Quest For More Bookclub...will support you and your endeavors in any way we possibly can. God Bless, my brother.

Love so deep it can kill you...,
By "yourkindagirl" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Autumn Leaves: Love So Deep (Paperback)
This was a very entertaining book. I feel that this is an excellent gift for young people to read. Unfortunately, promiscuity is still on a passtime for many and Mr. McGlothin so eloquently showed the results of it. Kennedy was something else. This young lady had a lot on her plate that dealt with denial. She was running from a past that she wanted nothing to do with. She tried to ignore that she should have made a mad dash from Simpson before her initial involvement. Lastly, she did not know what to do with a good thing. Marshall was workable. Unfortunately for him he made some mistakes that centered around the loss of his best friend. I liked his girlfriend and how she handled things. I wouldn't mind a spinoff on these two characters in a later book. Legacy Childs, um, um, um. This man stole my heart. I definitely hope that Mr. Glothin gives us another look at this character. He deserves so much. I hope you can tell that I enjoyed this book because I did! I look forward to the next project. God Bless!! 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful:

Master piece of work...,
By Tanya - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Autumn Leaves: Love So Deep (Paperback)
Great story for the big screen. We must stop the SILENCE. Marshall was a hero even though he didn't want to be one. I enjoyed the relationship between Marshall and Jasmine. I was cheering for them throughout the book. My heart went out to Kennedy. The message needs to be heard. The decisions we make today will effect our lives tomorrow. I highly recommend this excellent read to the young and the old.Victor, thanks so much for writing this novel. Be Blessed. |
