When I Get Where I’m Going
By Cheryl Robinson

Fans of Theodore “Tower” Evans, Porter Washington, Georgia Brown, and Olena Day, take note! Here’s the story of a tragedy that one family cannot seem to get away from, that is until they realize you gotta be in it to win it. Sisterhood is winning, moving pass family dysfunctions together and ultimately being free; is the winning ticket.
When I Get Where I’m Going opens with a letter addressed to Heaven from her dad. In his letter it is his prayer that all of his letters are being forwarded to Heaven’s new address and all of his girls come together as a family. He also tells Heaven a secret he’s been keeping for quite some time; that aside from Hope she has another sister name Alicia Day; who at last contact lived in the Detroit area. Her father wants Heaven to search for her and bring unity between herself, Hope and Alicia. What these three sisters don’t know but will come to know and understand is each one of them has the cure for what ails the other.
Ms. Robinson stories are written with a grand passion for her craft and the characters she introduces us to and When I Get Where I’m Going certainly doesn’t fall short. All the people I mentioned in the beginning of this review are taken from her previous books. They like Heaven, Hope and Alicia have left an impression on this reader. Throughout the book there’s a recurring theme that is never quiet; when you pour life into someone your life becomes blessed. I’m sure Alicia can say amen to that after she was told by Attorney Foxmoore that she was NOT going to be sued. You’ll have to read the book to find out more about that. (Smile)
When I Get Where I’m Going is a story of pain, regrets, family dysfunction, celebration and how sisterhood is the beginning to overcoming it all. I’m glad I had the opportunity to meet Alicia in Robinson’s previous book “In Love with a Younger Man and Heaven Jetter at her blogspot back in March.
