The Good Times Are Killing Me is a beautiful story of race relations and family dynamics fleshed out with sweet soul music. <br/> <br/>If you get a chance to see the stage adaptation of this story, DO IT! <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/317431?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
