  • The Help
    • Rated 4 stars

    I didn't think that I would like this book because I wondered could a White Women "reallY" write a story about the lives of Black maids in 1960's Mississippi. I must say the author told a very good story. It made you a part of the story and the lives of all of the characters. I really wonder what WOMEN WHO ACTUALLY WORKED these jobs would have to say about the story.

    When the Truth Lies

    by Timothy M Carson
    • Rated 3 stars

    Interesting read by this writer. Markus Tyrone Greene, educated successful brother lookin for the right person. Little does anyone know that Markus Tyrone is confused about "what" he really wants in a relationship. Uniyah wants tio be a star and will do almost anything or anybody to get to that place. Brandon Uniyah's friend and producer is looking forl"LOve" from a brother that can be into him. DRama waiting to happen in this book. As I stated before quite a interesting read.
