Why I recommend "Get to Work: . . . And Get a Life, Before It's Too Late"

Get to Work: . . . And Get a Life, Before It's Too Late

by Linda R. Hirshman

This is a super quick read! I didn’t agree with everything in here, but it did help me frame the entire so-called Mommy Wars. not sure if anyone not interested in that debate would enjoy it or get anything else out of what is already out in the media/blogs.

Why I recommend "Fledging- Octavia E Butler"

Fledging- Octavia E Butler

It turns the whole world of vampires on its head. Careful thou, this book was meant to be in a series, so it does leave you wanting more!

The Abortionist's Daughter

by Elisabeth Hyde

I have to admit that immediately finishing this book, I was on the fence. It wasn’t until I let it simmer in my head that I really liked it. My whole review is at my blog as well as a conversation with the author.

Kindred (Black Women Writers Series)

by Octavia E. Butler

I just ate this story up. It’s an easy read text wise, but horribly difficult to read in the sense that Butler does an amazing job at humanizing the narrator as well as detailing the life of slaves and constructing a complex social network that they lived in.
