AN INFORMATIVE NOVEL WITH MANY DRAMATIC TWISTS

THIS NOVEL WAS TRULY A PAGE-TURNER. I COULD HARDLY PUT IT DOWN. THE CHARACTERS AND THEIR SITUATIONS WERE TRUE TO LIFE. MS. MCMILLAN'S CHARACTERS ALWAYS HAVE A TOUCH OF MYSTERY AS WELL AS DRAMA. FROM KAHN TO THYME TO LUELLA TO TINO, THERE WAS NEVER A DULL MOMENT WHILE READING THIS NOVEL. ALTHOUGH THIS IS FICTION, I PRESUME THAT THE SITUATIONS IN THE AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY ARE VERY REAL, E.G. THE VIOLENCE, RACISM, AND OVERTIME CONFLICTS. THIS IS TRULY A GREAT READ!

Very, Very Good Book!

I really enjoyed this book, actually, I have enjoyed all the books Ms. McMillan has written. I liked the fact that by Thyme being in the position that she was, she did not let it go to her head and treat Kahn as if she was beneath her. Even though Luella died a horrible death, she did get what she deserved for going over to Antonio's house and beating up his wife all because he did not want her. I was so glad Thyme left her husband, it took her a while, but at least she did it and found herself someone who she loved and wanted to have children by.Great book, can't wait for the next.

This book is excellent and you will not put it down.

I have read all of Rosalyn's book's and I must say this is the one that made her an excellent writer. I struggled with "Knowing". "One Better" was good, but my personal opinion, she tried too hard. "Knowing" and "One Better" had good endings but I was disappointed with the meat of the novels. When I picked up "Blue Collar Blues", I thought how awesome, she has truly become a fantastic writer. Her natural talents flowed and I flipped page after page because I could not wait to see what was going to happen next. I could not put it down. She took the blue collar world and make it come alive. The characters were real and the story line believable. Keep up the good work and I can not wait until the next book is out. I meet you in person at the Shrine of the Black Madonna in Atlanta, Georgia and I admire and appreciate your work (Cecelia Jones, VP, Circle of Friends Book Club II.

Escape from my reality

I just finished Blue Collar Blues today. I definitely recommend Ms. Millan's three books. I enjoy the manner in which she develops her characters. I also think her writing is a great fictional escape from my own reality. Thanks Ms. Millan for three wonderful books.
