Chappell's comments from the The African American Book Critics group.

OOOH that is a great question! Let me dig in my library and give you some ideas. I'm readings book right now called Raising Fences: A Black Man's Love Story (Today Show Book Club #4)
by Michael Datcher that has some very powerful poetry in it.

You will not regret it! You can get on amazon.com for about 0.50!!!

OOO you have marvelous taste in books. Those are some of my favs as well!

Let's start by listing a couple of our favorite books.

I have one that I buy and give as a gift often that that is

Sapphires and Other Precious Jewels: Discover and Celebrate the Beauty of Women of African Descent (Paperback)
by Terri Mcfaddin

This book was so inspirational to me that i started a women's group here called Sapphire Sisters (we have a website and everything) I think it just puts such a unique positive outlook on the female condition (for lack of a better word today). Very uplifting.

Have any of you read it?

I have others but this one sticks out right now.
