“This book displays the courage of three African-American women travelling along their journey through life. These women own similar characterristics that hinder success-self-destruction, self-hatred and substance abuse. These three characteristics cripple the soul, forcing the negative self-image to prevail, planting the seed in the cycle of poverty.”
“This book left me breathless but refreshed on some levels. The issues the author addresses are some that I feel personally affects the current status of African Americans in our society today…If one doesn’t own self-love they will not suceed…”
“I found myself lost in each page holding my breath at times waiting for the outcome of each woman’s journey. I also became angry at how real each story was. We in the African American community, hinder our success and the success of others by continually owning self-hatred…”
” Ms. Marshall paints a clear picture of how things are and what is expected behind the Whittenhall Wall..as they feel they deserve nothing more…”
“The veil is a metaphor of the importance of knowing your true worth and value…. I highly recommend this book for all people, however, feel it will have its greatest influence on young women despite the color of their skin…”
“THIS BOOK IS PHENOMENAL, and I hope the author gets the praise that she deserves for addressing serious issues in such a gripping way. As in life, each character has their own voice, and I heard them loud and clear… Bravo!”

“I was extremely surprised to find the story line, and characters of this book so well defined and compelling. As an African American man who does not usually read fiction, I was most satisfied to find three GOOD black men and three strong black women in this novel, breaking the traditional barriers and stereotypes. K.C. Marshall takes us into the root of some very deep, long seated issues in the African American community and; as we watch the characters struggle, motivates us to reach beyond our comfort zone to succeed. It is a book for all cultures and all times. Well done Ms. Marshall.”

“This is a collection of stories of some strong African American women who, like any human being make some wrong choices in their lives. Unlike many of their neighbors, these women learn from their mistakes and , with the help of other strong women rise above their circumstances. Marshall goes beyond a simple telling of their stories. Through the stories, she examines the role that society in general (including the African American community) plays in perpetuating the cycle of poverty, and opens the readers eyes to the underlying issues. A must-read for anyone interested in Black Studies, Sociology, Women’s Studies, or any related subject.”

“My Sister’s Veil- I found it intriguing, exciting, and a page-turner. The characters were well developed and the story line compelling. It is a true testament to the commitment to excellence. The in-depth characterizations and circumstances of many, revealed to me just how our culture shapes many disadvantaged in our society. In this instance, the characters refuse to allow adversity to determine their fate…the human spirit prevails.”

I enjoyed reading My Sister’s Veil very much. The characters come to life and you get to know them. They became part of my life and taught me many lessons, especially about the power of love. The plot twists and turns kept my eyes stretched open. It is a page-turner. I highly recommend this book.
