Black Authors Books - Terry McMillan

I had to share this great lady with all of you Terry McMillan. Even though I have not read the books I am going to mention in a minute, I have watched the films and they were great films. The films I am refering to are 'Waiting to Exhale' starring Whitney Houston and 'How Stella Got Her Groove Back' starring Angela Bassett.

Black authors books: An outline of The Interruption of Everything

At 44, Marilyn Grimes is facing up to the menopause (something is definitely up with her hormones), bored to tears by her responsible but unsexy husband Leon, and feeling the strain of having raised three children who may be great kids but who leave her feeling anxious all the time.

Her mother-in-law, Arthurine, has moved in, as has Arthurine's beloved elderly dog, Snuffy. Meantime the needs of her own extended family (particularly her crack-head foster sister) are escalating like mad. No wonder Marilyn is feeling tired and hormonal. But everything is interrupted when Marilyn finds out she's not menopausal but pregnant.

My Local Libraries Book Sale

Morning to you all, it's a cold winter's day where I live but the lord has blessed me today, so it's a bright day.

I went to my local library today to find they are having another booksale. Oh how I love book sales and considering the recession is on the books now cost next to nothing to purchase. I brought 12 books today and the lady sold them to me for only a £1.00, I saved 20p not a lot but it's a saving. 6 were black authors books for my reading pleasure, 4 were for my son's reading pleasure (2 were also written by black authors)and the last 2 were for business reference purposes. I will now add these great books to my ever growing collection of Black authors books.

I know you want to know what books I purchased and I will share. Each post will have another book as I have already showed via past posts. I have so many books to get through that I will be doing this blog for sometime. Being such a nice person I will list the black authors books I brought today in this post and you will get more detailed information in future posts.
