My novels are reader friendly. You do not have to be a Christian, woman, or African-American to relate to the plight of Kidd Jamieson in Guilty by Association. You fall in love with the characters and root for them. The readers will also learn some African-American genealogy which will spark interest in non-fiction books about ancestry.
Bound for Glory is a full-color coffee-table book. Even more, both books offer the gift of knowledge. The devotional takes a path through 52 virtues that God blesses daily. If you feel lack in your life, this is your book. Bound for Glory features illustrations and reflections on 52 African American spirituals—plus a Bible verse relevant to each song. Another beautiful book treasure.
As with every year, I’ve perused the upcoming 2011 African American releases (and books by those from other ethnicity) and created a list of books that I want to read during 2011. Hmmm…my list is very light. There’s a few new releases currently out…and more to come as the year progresses…but so far not very many are calling my name. 
Okay I know I said three weeks ago this book giveaway was coming…and it was…but I just didn’t know that life would get in the way. How many folks know that sometimes best made plans get waylaid…how many of ya’ll are feeling me? Okay enuf about that…I’m back and so is the giveaway and the BOOKS.
What about the books? There’s no better way to enjoy fall than with a good book…and how about taking a chance on a book that you don’t even have to buy? APOOO has created the Fall in Love with a Good Book 2010 Book Giveaway…stay tuned for more details tomorrow. Over 25 books to choose from and you could be one of the lucky winners!
Congratulations to yesterday’s winners:

For those who are interested in today’s book giveaway, the following books are still available.
Can you believe that the First Half of 2010 is over? I can’t either. But one thing is for sure–July is here and if there’s one thing for sure we all know about July it’s one of the HOTTEST MONTHS of the year. The month truly brings in the hot, humid, lazy days of summer where all ones wants to do is hang out at the pool, feel the ocean breeze or be inside an air-conditioned place (preferably somewhere other than work).
Writing in the tradition of Dennis Lehane and Greg Iles, Attica Locke, a powerful new voice in American fiction, delivers a brilliant debut thriller that readers will not soon forget.
My Top 10 Books of the Decade (2000 – 2009) are now available. It was a lot of work to narrow done to 10 but these are books that I can recommend without a doubt to other bibliophiles. If you’ve read any of them, please share your thoughts.
Okay, so the objective is to come up with my favorite (Top 10) books of the past decade. Hmmm…I’m still working on that list, but so far I’ve come up with my long list. Check it out.
