Editorial Review:
Another perceptive novel about a boy on the edge of adult responsibilities.
Green Days by the River (Caribbean Writers Series (Unnumbered).) Reviews:
a book to read again and again 
2007-12-19 - I read this book as a child - I am now 46 and still touched by it. I was asked the other night what some of my favorite books were. I rattled off a list of books that I have read in the last 20 years or so that made some impact on me. Then, as I was driving to work this morning, I remembered this book. I did a websearch and was happy to find that Amazon had reviewers of it. The thing I find most treasurable about this book was how engrossed I became with the story. I found myself right there, in the fields, on the dirt roads, with the dogs - it's as if I had been transported into the pages. Fantastic writer, now that I remember the book, I will be sure to read it again, and to look for other titles by the author.
I recomend this book for the young and old alike.
Electrifying
2002-04-19 - You know you've read a GREAT book when almost 7 years later, you remember the whole thing and where you were when you read it.
Green days is the book, not just for Caribbean born folks ( I am one!) but for any one who have love and lost and loved again. It desires to be bought.
A MUST READ!
2002-03-05 - The characters were very universal. Even though I am a trinidadian woman and can relate to the story better than most, it is still a book that every one should read. The main character was the type of young man that you just wanted something good to happen for him. He possessed alot of the characteristics of human nature. He wants a young woman, then he doesn't want her then he does again, then you're not sure what he wants. Life is like that. This story is the perfect theme of innocence to experience.
The best Book I have ever read!
2000-11-26 - I just love Green Days By The River. All my friends at school love the book also we read it in Literature class. and in our end of year we get a Test on this Book and others. I love the book I am only just so sorry that shell could not have married Joan.In english Class I got an assignment to write on wheter Mr.Gidharee was trying to lure Shell into a trap.What do you think if you figure something please e-mail me at nhs@cwjamaica.com please! It is to be brought in tommorrow morning. And tell me your reviews also.
A sizzling tale of forbidden love
1999-03-03 - A classic West Indian novel, this book is way ahead of its time in its depiction of inter-racial relationships in a rustic country village. This tale puts a new twist on the time old story of star crossed lovers. It will keep you gripped to the climatic finish. This is a realistic novel, which will allow you to experience life in rural Trinidad.
