4.0 out of 5 stars A Change is Going to Come, February 10, 2010
This review is from: Table for Three (Urban Soul) (Mass Market Paperback)
Shiquanna is an alcoholic exotic dancer with a few high paying dates on the side. She has life demons that she is fighting as she drowns her soul in alcohol. Yvonne is an unemployed CPA whose current stint of charity work at the church is about more than a pure heart. Toting her bible and holy water she is ready to cast out the demons of her friends, but needs to take a closer look at her own demons. India is a professional college student struggling with her identity. She has changed major more often than people change their underwear,

These three women could not be any more different, but life brought them together and love for each other keeps them grounded. Each week they meet to provide whatever intervention they feel must be performed in each others lives. As the story unfolds we find that they all have issues of their own that need to be worked out.

Table for Three is a re-coming of age story about three women approaching milestones in their lives. Shiquanna, India and Yvonne are likable and believable characters. You will find yourself ready to throw the book across the room in frustration as these three women become a part of your own sister-girl fold.

If you enjoy contemporary women's lit, you will enjoy this tale of growing pains. I recommend this to any one looking to read chick lit without the cookie cutter lifestyles. These women are real and will have you frustrated, laughing and eventually cheering for their Table for Three.

This review is from: Table for Three (Urban Soul) (Mass Market Paperback)
Three friends bound together, weekly share their day to day lives at a restaurant, each harboring a secret.

On the outside, Shiquanna is a tough cookie with a razor-sharp tongue, but deep down she's a lost soul yearning for love and guidance; numbing her pain and broken spirit with alcohol. Raised in a single parent home, Shiquanna has endured what no child should ever have to experience. While in high school she's befriended by India, who feels empathy toward Shiquanna for her daily struggle with school assignments and the kids' taunts.

India, a bright, career college student loves a debate. She expresses her thoughts and opinions over issues with passion and vigor. However, she has a difficult time admitting her alternative lifestyle to her family and friends. She's only confided her secret to Shiquanna, but is now forced to make a decision which may change her life.

Holier-than-thou Yvonne makes it her business to pass judgment on anyone who doesn't measure up to her success, beauty, and religious beliefs. She and India met in college, became great friends, soon adding Shiquanna to their intimate sister circle. Yvonne believes God has sent the minister of her church to be her husband. Her obsession over this man of God is clouding her Christian walk, causing her to do whatever it takes to get him.

Each woman gave their secrets so much power, they were headed for some form of self-destruction. However, in time, they were able to free themselves from their sadness and enjoy life. Peay poignantly writes each character's life with sincere truth; their lives could easily be anyone's life. TABLE FOR THREE is a tender, moving story, which will surely capture the hearts of its readers.

This review is from: Table for Three (Urban Soul) (Mass Market Paperback)
Recha pulled out all the stops on this one. Don't judge a book by its cover; these ladies are anything but nice.

Great book. Easy read and keeps your attention from beginning to end. [...]
