SUMMER BOOKLIST
NEWBO:The rise of the New Black Overclass by Lee Hawkins
Just sounds interesting! Author is fine! grs! and I wanna join the overclass...I think...guess I gotta read the book!
The Secret by Rhonda Byrnes
I hear this book is SERIOUS! I hear it changes perspectives...I know I'm late but Imma read it prolly the first book I read for the summer...BIRTHDAY GIFT?!? NO! I like to buy my own books.
Can't Stop Won't Stop by Jeff Chang
After I read HipHop Revolution by Ogbar I heard this book talks more about the music persay! Ogbar's book is a political book...a good easy read! Can't Stop Won't Stop is supposed to dig deeper than the obvious "money, cars, clothes and hoes"...yep yep must read
Jodi Picoult's latest books
She is FOR REAL! She's a fictional author that can write from ANY POV! Kinda scary but serious! love it! She writes faster than I can read tho!
Why I love Black Women, Mercy Mercy Me, and Know What I Mean? by Michael Eric Dyson
I fell in love with him somewhere between my first and second year of school! He came and spoke as a Keynote Speaker this yr. I just think he is a positive force in the Hip-Hop and Educational arenas! AND HE'S FROM DETROIT! WHAAAAAT?!?!? Yea that's serious!
Still Dirty by Vickie Stringer
FEMALE GANGSTA!?!? WHAAAAAATT??!!? Yea that's liberating from a feminist's stand point!!
Imma leave this list at that! I'll add as I go along, I know. And there is a possibility that one or some of this book(s) will be x'd off!
Clearly I read a lot...not a whole hell of a lot...but a lot! Sooo I got some
Suggestions:
Jodi Picoult's My Sister's Keeper
on my top 5 fav book list
Vickie Stringer's Let that be the Reason and Imagine this
female gangsta...like I said
Cupcake Brown's A Piece of Cake
SUCH AN INSPIRATIONAL BOOK! She went through SOOOO MUCH! Crazy stor I loved it! She's gonna be on Tyra tomorrow...True story...no really it's a true story! hehehe that tickled me!
Native Son by Richard Wright
Another fav...yea this is SERIOUS!
