Review of Reformatory by Tananarive Due
To be honest I’ve been reluctant to read this book because I’ve seen such praise for it, that I was afraid it wouldn’t live up to its reputation. But Tananarive Due has never disappointed me yet. Characters to care about, in a suspenseful and poignant story. Just to complicate things for the main characters, who already are dealing with angry ghosts, a psychopathic warden, and the Klan, they also have to manage well-meaning allies who don’t believe in spirits or who do believe in the fairness of the justice system.
