You Don't Know My Name by Barbara Joe Williams ♥♥♥♥♥ (NON-SPOILER REVIEW)Am I the only one when saw the title started singing Alicia Keys, song by the same heading? Well, for me it was more like humming than actually singing. On a much serious note, even though the novella is not Christian base I was able to pull a faithful message out of it. (If I'm incorrect about the genre, please accept my humble apology.) The message remained me of Matthew 7:5 "You, hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye."In short terms: An immature mind bases their opinions of an individual on the perceptions of others. Don't base your judgments solely on the exterior layer of a person until you have gotten a chance to know the interior coating of them for yourself.The author has written a story about two people, in spite of their past and current situations loved unconditionally.This tale, amazingly written, with a rapid pace. Characters were very relatable. Kept my attention from beginning to end. In my opinion, the editing of this novella done seamlessly. I had only wished the story was longer, despite the page length, it was still an enjoyable read.Please note there is an anthology by the name of The 21 Lives of Lisette Donavan, which comes prior to this novella, where a different author pens each chapter. I have not read it yet; however reading `You Don't Know My Name' first, I personally didn't get the feeling that I had missed something.
