Forbidden
Review : Forbidden - Tabitha Suzuma - June 2011
Depending on whereabouts you live , it will depend on which cover you recieve . For me in little ol' New Zealand, we had the black cover , which personally I like as it stands out more than the red. And the barbed wire heart looks more realistic on black than red.
Have you read the Virginia Andrew's series "Flowers in the Attic" , seen the film "Clueless" ? In many films and books, we see that Love can be a complicated issue and in more cases than not family members have fallen in love with each other , more often than not it's step or half-siblings like in Clueless between Cher and her Stepbrother Paul , or in Charlaine Harris's Harper Connelly series we see half-siblings Harper and Tolliver eventually together. However, the one book that I have seen real siblings fall in love is Virginia Andrew's Flowers in the Attic series.
In Tabitha Suzuma's book "Forbidden" we witness a family where the mum is semi in the picture and the older siblings Lochie and Maya are left to raise their younger siblings Kit, Willa and Tiffin . Over the pages , we see Lochie and Maya become closer and closer and soon we read as they start to develop feelings of love for each other, they both know it's wrong and they try to stop but their magnetic love for each keeps bringing them back. In the end , we see their love being compared to Hamlet , where the son had an affair with his mother. Eventually the duo are caught and consequences follow , but as you read the consequences and the decisions behind why Lochie accepted them, you see that their love and family meant so much to them , that they are willing to sacrifice all :) .
In Tabitha Suzuma's book what is such a forbidden and taboo topic once you read this you will understand why in cases it does occur.
