I have enjoyed reading since the days of "Nancy Drew" in elementary school. My passion is Mysteries, but I am open to all aspects of reading (including Almanac's :))

I hope you place my book on your shelf LOVED TO DEATH: A Differerent Kind of Love Story. It is a short murder mystery dealing with how being adopted can kill the spirit of the adoptee.

    I got a new crop of books in and read 3 in 3 days! I read Francis Ray's Not Even If You Begged (loved it), I read Lightning Never Strikes Twice by a local writer in my hometown Ella June Smith Robertson (interesting) and One In A Million by Kimberla Lawson Roby (disappointed). Now I'm reading Married Lovers by Jackie Collins. I need therapy!

    I've been writing, but I've discovered a new hobby that has taken me away from it for a couple weeks. I've been making beaded bracelets and find it relaxes me. So I understand about the knitting. Do Both!

    Hello dear member of the Black Feminist/Womanist Literature group! It's J., the admin., and I'm writing to inform you of the group's new look! (And it goes beyond the change in our group picture, though it is nice, don't you agree?) :) What we're discussing now: Patricia Hill Collins' Black Feminist Thought, Toni Morrison's Sula for our July read, our little BIG Read: 7 short stories in 7 days to begin later this month, the National Black Arts Festival where Alice Walker and Pearl Cleage are featured speakers, and more!

    We'll soon have a group blog up and running, will begin profiling the uberly dynamic authors within our own group, discussing women's/girls action coalitions in your city, reviving some of our good ol' threads, etc.

    I challenge everyone to invite at least one friend (already a member of shelfari or otherwise) to join the Black Feminist/Womanist Literature group and to log in at least bi-weekly. (Though weekly would be wonderful!) And I pledge to do the same.

    And did you know that Toni Morrison's new novel, A Mercy, is due to be released in November? Ah, you would if you'd visited our group page! (No, actually, I haven't posted this information. lol) But do stop by and fall into the purple haze that is extraordinary literature by feminists of color!

    Love, Jaya

    Thanks for the invitationto join. I know that I owe you the rest of the title to the mystery based in Ann Arbor, which includes the words a Fine Man. I have misplaced the book in my junky bed/project room. I did read in the last 2 days What God can do by Deborah Mathais?. Very insightful and inspirational short stories.

    I Noticed a comment about Douglass' women on someone else's page and was curious what you and your bookclub thought of it. Recently I did some research on Anna Murray Douglass and am struck at how little is recorded of her life and over 40 year marriage to Frederick Douglass. Most of the search hits are in reference to his "other women".
