A Few Books in a Few Weeks





Surprisingly, I have actually read a few books in the past few weeks. I think I can attribute it to reading during Lil Mama's activities. These three books were not my favorite books of all time, but they were entertaining. Out of the bunch, Sin No More was probably my favorite. This book is part of the series with the Curtis Black character. I have always felt Kimberla Lawson Roby was a great author, and I love reading her books.

Double Cross by James Patterson was pretty good, but I liked the book Cross better. There are still some thrilling moments though!

You Belong To Me was recommended by a friend of mine. It was a quick read with a little bit of romance and mystery. If you read it let me know if you figure out "who done it." LOL!!

I am currently reading Because of Grace by Kendra Norman-Bellamy. She is a christian author and I absolutely love her books. I had read the #1 and #3 already in this series, so I am backtracking to #2. I am sure this book will not disappoint, but I will share after I read it.

"Basketball Jones" by E. Lynn Harris


I can't believe it, but I've actually finished another book this month. Of course E. Lynn Harris' books are always a breeze for me to get through because they are so entertaining. Now this book wasn't a five star one for me but four stars. While it was entertaining, it was slightly predictable. If you want a light and easy read though. Check it out.

Now what should I read next?

"Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak




My co-worker informed me about this book a few weeks ago. She mentioned that it was one of her favorite books growing up, and that a movie was being released. I ordered the book here, in anticipation of the movie. Lil Mama and I read the book together, and now she can't wait to see the movie.

The link to the official trailer is here. The movie comes out today, and I want to try and see it sometime this weekend.

A Rare Occurrence


I just returned yesterday from a wonderful vacation in Hawaii. I will blog more about that trip later, but I just wanted to share something that rarely happens on my vacations. I actually started and finished a book. I was having a problem with my knee, so I wasn't trying to do a lot of things at every waking moment. The book was a quick read for me, and I was able to read it in two short sittings. I've been very behind on keeping up with the latest novels, especially those by E. Lynn Harris. I have always loved him as an author and he surely didn't disappoint in "Mama Dearest." This book brings back characters that we have seen in his previous books. It was very entertaining and I certainly recommend it. As I've done with his previous books I give it 5 out of 5 stars. I will by reading "Basketball Jones" by E. Lynn Harris next.
