The outstanding thing about Ain’t No Sunshine is the language used. Carra Roe presents a unique mother-daughter relationship. It contains a lot of flashbacks, which help us understand the thought processes of the characters and the reasons for their present actions. Roe infuses humorous scenes and conversations at every point, especially those with religious undertones. Most importantly, there are vital lessons to learn, one of which is the need to heal and move on from bad situations. This is a masterpiece and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I loved reading Ain't No Sunshine because it is entertaining and raises awareness of issues affecting people in society. Champ's funny quotes and Bunny's comebacks had me laughing out loud, but their arguments were also enlightening. They felt therapeutic and made me realize people have different perspectives on similar life experiences. Bunny and Champ shared the same memories about Big Hank, yet they had opposing opinions on what was happening in their home. The story contains some intense scenes that may trigger some readers. Other than this, Carra Roe beautifully captures Champ and Bunny's individuality and complex personalities and presents a well-written and smart story. She gives both generations an equal platform to present their ideas on living and surviving in this treacherous world. Great story.

Ain’t No Sunshine by Carra Roe has several intertwined subplots that help us understand the two women’s ideologies, opinions, and thoughts. I found this strategy excellent in giving us multiple perspectives about the two women’s philosophies and beliefs, which form the basis for their motivation. Bunny and Champ have been excellently woven into believable and relatable characters that help to showcase an ordinary family with disagreements. Additionally, through their conversations, they expose the challenges Black people have faced and continue to face in America, including corruption, racism, and the effects of poverty. This creates awareness in affected countries facing similar social conflicts to come up with solutions to create a tolerant society. Roe has intentionally deviated from standard English to Creole, adding to the story's aesthetic beauty and making the narrative interesting. I recommend it to adults who want to change how people treat each other because of their racial differences. 

This is a remarkable book. So vivid, so well drawn. There's a depth to the characterisation that's effortlessly achieved; well-used dialogue, perceptive choice moments remembered, that creates real people, Bunny and Champ, there on the page. Even Big Hank, only seen through their eyes, not ours, feels solid, three dimensional. And as poignant as these memories are, and this story is, it's also laugh-out-loud funny in places, the humour drawn as effortlessly as the pathos.

For a debut, this is remarkably assured, and speaks of a bright future for an emerging writer

With vibrant characters that pop off the pages and a humor-filled narrative, Carra Roe has crafted a captivating tale about a mother-daughter duo constantly at odds with each other and struggling to navigate life away from the countryside. Ain't No Sunshine is an engaging drama that takes you by surprise with its unexpected emotional depth and compelling characters who seem straight out of the Kentucky bluegrass. Bunny's relationship with Champ and their quick back-and-forth was the highlight, and some of the scenes involving Champ genuinely had me in stitches. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and can't recommend it enough. 

Ain't No Sunshine is a breezy, quick, and entertaining read. The story is simply engrossing without the fluff.  The pace of the story is fast but perfect. It is packed full of action, drama, and a sense of achievement as Bunny navigates tough and realistic decisions. Undoubtedly the perfect story to read.
