BGG, I love reading! Unfortunately, it's been quite a while since my last read. Fortunately, my children are gone until August so it's now or never. I think I'll stop by the book store today and pick up a couple of good ones. I think I want the one about the black girl next door!!
This summer I plan to read the Confessions of a Shopaholic series. I think that the last book that I read which actually had substance was "The Miseducation of the Negro". I haven't read many books like that one. I'm a fan of romance and drama. Confessions of a Beauty Addict sounds like a good one.
Great choices I'll added to my list of books for the summer.
Tks!
I think I will totally pick up Black girl Next door...maybe tomorrow.
Thanks
BGG
GREAT POST! I'm adding all of these to my amazon wish list. My favorite books are self-help with personal and career, thrillers/mysteries (but not scary books) and chick lit. All very different, I know, but I have to switch it up to stay interested.
beauty addict is fantastic!
Something about reading about other people's lives just doesn't do it for me. The way I figure everyone has their own story...minus the book deal. Anywho, I'm a big fiction, fantasy, mystery girl and I don't go anywhere w/o a book. Any good recommendations?
I love reading & there's nothing like lounging around reading in the summer...whether on the deck, in a hammock, in bed, at a beach or a park or on the porch. Thanks for the book suggestions. I have an ever growing "to read" list but I'll have to check 'em out.
I want to read "More Than Just Race"
I AM A HUGE READER...RIGHT NOW I AM READING MIDNIGHT BY SISTER SOULJAH. I HAD THIS BOOK FOR ABOUT A GOOD 3 OR 4 MONTHS, I JUST CAN'T GET INTO IT.. I like to read a little bit of everything...OH I m a big fan of self help books too. have you read THE FIRST 30 DAYS BY ARIAN DE BONVOISIN...one of plenty on my wish list. I have to check out Confessions of a Beauty Addict and The Black Girl next door...I definitely can relate to being the only black girl in an all white school...crazy! anyway I love your blog and a great post! take care
Oh wow, funny you should mention this as I've just rediscovered my love of biographies. Currently reading The Magic and the Madness, the biography of MJ written by Randy Taraborelli. Since his death I've become intrigued by his life, almost to the point of obsession, lol. I'm almost a quarter of a way through the book and really enjoying it. Not half as salacious and sensationalist as I expected it to be.
Thanks for your recommendations
I love reading... I've been wanting to read something light these days. So I think Confessions of a Beauty Addict could be my next book! Thanks for the rec BGG <3
