  • The Crossing Over of Mattie Pearl

    The Crossing Over of Mattie Pearl

    by Andrea R. Garrison
    • Rated 5 stars

    This little book is a short read into the inevitable experience of death. Andrea Garrison shares the very personal moments of her mother's transition. It filled me with expectation and a yearning to see the LIGHT, myself.

  • The Fountain
    • Rated 0 stars

    I just watched the movie. The book must be very intriguing, to say the least. A real look into the mystery of death, reincarnation and resurrection.

  • Science of Breath
    • Rated 0 stars

    This is one of the most important books I've ever read. Since all we need to live is breath, everyone needs to read and understand the lessons on how to breath written by Ramacharaka. It's a fast read, but one that should remain on your bookshelf for Life!

  • Angela Davis: An Autobiography
    • Rated 0 stars

    This woman's life has gone from Most Wanted by FBI to most influential political activist female on the planet. Her autobiography is a must read for all of those who proclaim to understand the plight of Black people in America and the world. She is both introspective and outwardly concerned about the well being of her people and it is reflected on ever page of her story.

  • In Pursuit of a Melody

    In Pursuit of a Melody

    by Joan Cartwright
    • Rated 5 stars

    For decades, I was in awe of people who wrote books. This, my first book, took 30 years of my life to compile and 13 months to write and submit to be self-published. I've edited it 5 times and have one more edit to go before it is, in my opinion, perfect. Stand by for the second book, IN PURSUIT OF A MELODY IN ASIA, to be published in 2008.
