Are you an avid reader? I would like to say that I am, but the truth is, lately, I haven't been reading as much I would like. But I am proud to say that I am currently finishing up The Measure of a Man by Sidney Poitier, which I'm really enjoying.
Books that I have read in the past and thoroughly enjoyed are:
Leaving Cecil Street by Diane McKinney Whetstone
The Coldest Winter Ever by Sister Souljah
Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou
