In recent times, I’m enthralled by the work of Synthia St. James and particularly some of her latest pieces, such as, “Circle of Promise,” healing art meant to encourage hope, promise, healing, and love-rewriting the story of African Americans and breast cancer.

Second Chance, Baby would make a great Christmas gift because it’s a story that embodies one of the key elements of the holiday season: love. Ty and Felicia are given a second chance at making their marriage work, at building and maintaining their family. What a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday!

If you were one of the 12 days of Christmas items, what would you be and why?
The nine ladies dancing. That’s the closest one that resembles one of the things I love most, getting together with my friends and having a great time.

I remember being so excited to get a board game of my own, since my siblings were between 5 and 10 years older than me and I couldn’t play Monopoly with them. But I didn’t have to know how to read to play my Candy land game, and my siblings were always willing to play with me.

Greetings and welcome to the Twelve Days of Christmas Books Giveaway and Virtual Book Tour. For the next 12 days, APOOO will showcase some of today’s favorite authors and giveaway copies of their books. And each day APOOO will add another book to the prize package.
