Francis Ray is one I have to get. I am in the process of collecting her books. I did not read my JD Mason book I own yet so I am not sure if I like the style enough to read more. I like Honey B, so I may just get that one as well. Let’s hope by March that I have gotten my now 102 books in the TBR pile some where under control.
Lashonda…102 books in the trp…I feel your pain…hehe.
Sadly, I’m only interested in two so far: Mason’s and Cooper’s.
Phyllis I feel ya…I hope others come down the pipeline soon…although Paule Marshall’s title intrigues me…I need to get more info regarding this book.
Like Lashonda, I’m collecting Francis Ray’s books so I want that one. Read Diary of a Street Diva when it was first released back in 2005. Was one of OOSA’s reads for the month.

FOR SURE:
The After Wife by Lexi Davis
Life is Short But Wide by J. California Cooper

I’m interested in reading Single Husbands by Honey B., That Devil’s No Friend of Mine by J. D. Mason and Triangular Road by Paule Marshall oh and Life is Short But Wide by J. California Cooper.
Phyllis/Rozz–I’m looking forward to reading Mason’s book, Davis’ and I’ll wait to hear what others have to say about Coop’s book before picking it up. I wasn’t that thrilled with her last couple of books.
