jeanniechambers's review against another edition
5.0
This was my first book by Sandra Kitt, and I enjoyed it. I read other reviews before posting this one, and I agree with some points, but not all of them.
There were a couple of predictable things, but there were surprises as well that weren't brought to light until near the end.
This book delves deep into issues when Dallas was younger, which makes it a nice coming-of-age plot. She seems reserved one minute and has no filter the next, which is certainly human.
I was confused a few times, but all in all, a great read.
I think my favorite character was her father, and my mind sees them much closer after the book ended. Like so many people, too bad things couldn't have been shared with Dallas when she was younger, her life could have been so much easier.
I would read a sequel to Between Friends.

Sandra Kitt is know for writing great romance stories about interracial couples and she did not disappoint. It was an excellent read about an African American woman who is born with a Caucasian mother and an African American father, who falls in love with a Caucasian man. She also learned some secrets about her past and is trying to trust again.

This book is brilliant. I don't have enough adjectives in my vocabulary to tell you how much I enjoyed reading [b:Between Friends|1514181|Between Friends|Sandra Kitt|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1184533773s/1514181.jpg|1505858]. I loved the two main characters, Alex and Dallas. The narrative pacing was spot on. The plot and characters are well-developed and compelling right from the very beginning. I re-read this book approximately 1 x per year because it's simply an amazing story.

The opening scene is an on page attempted rape complete with racial slurs. It simply wasn’t what I was looking for when I picked up this book. I wanted something lighthearted to relax into and the prologue was triggering for me and left me too on edge to attempt continuing. I may give it another go in the future.
