In this stunning debut novel, four generations of complex Black women contend with motherhood and daughterhood, generational trauma and the deeply ingrained tensions and wounds that divide them as they redefine happiness and healing for themselves. In masterful, elegant prose, debut novelist Sarai Johnson has created a rich and moving portrait of Black women’s lives today.

Hey you guys, it’s Leslie. I’m excited to share my story with you. Now, I’m gonna be honest: Some of the details might be vague because a b*tch is fifty-five and she’s smoked a ton of weed. But while bits might be a touch hazy, I can promise you the underlying truth is REAL.

Mary B. Addison killed a baby. Allegedly. She didn't say much in that first interview with detectives, and the media filled in the only blanks that mattered: a white baby had died while under the care of a churchgoing black woman and her nine-year-old daughter. The public convicted Mary, and the jury made it official. But did she do it?

Written in a distinctive voice and filled with personality, humor, and pathos, Fruit Punch is a memoir unlike any other, from a one-of-a-kind millennial talent. Growing up in Dallas, Texas, in the nineties and early 2000s, Kendra Allen had a complicated, loving, and intense family life filled with desire and community but also undercurrents of violence and turmoil. “We equate suffering to perseverance and misinterpret the weight of shame,” she writes.

Very interesting format for a memoir.

I struggled to finish it. I wasn't expecting her to read it like a 4hr poem. As much as I enjoy poetry and love a good memoir, for me those two should never intertwine. I appreciate the author being the narrator and liked the overall story.

She was everything I imagined and it was a delight getting to know her. Such a classy woman, who was so relatable despite her celebrity.

Jamie Foxx has won an Academy Award and a Grammy Award, laughed with sitting presidents, and partied with the biggest names in hip-hop. In Act Like You Got Some Sense, Jamie shares up close and personal stories about the tough love and old-school values he learned growing up in the small town of Terrell, Texas; his early days trying to make it in Hollywood; the joys and challenges of achieving stardom; and how each phase of his life shaped his parenting journey. Hilarious, poignant, and always brutally honest, this is Jamie Foxx like we’ve never seen him before.

I very much enjoyed listening to Jamie speak so lovingly about his daughters and his relationship with his grandmother. I laughed, I related and I was thoroughly entertained. I really hope he puts out another book some day...soon!!

The life of actor, choreographer, and musician Columbus Short has been punctuated with trauma that extends well beyond the plot lines of his previous role on the hit series Scandal. Short has lived many lives packed into one - from a family filled with turmoil to tumultuous love affairs and enough scandals of his own. But somewhere in the middle, Short’s realization that there has to be a better way comes into full view.

I'm glad it was free!
Revisado: 03-23-21
I couldn't wait to get through this. It was awful to say the least. Chapter after chapter of how everything that happened to him was kinda his fault but mostly because of someone else. If he wasn't taking jabs at his ex-wife, he was talking about how he was the best at EVERYTHING (acting, dancing, choreography, writing, etc.). This book lacked direction, consistency and depth. There was no real story here! It should have been a podcast instead. His pace of reading felt like he was reading lines from Scandal, why so fast for an audiobook? Also, too many technical glitches that should have been noticed during editing. I was more of a fan before I read this book, now I'm kinda put off by him.

Now a writer and performer on Late Night with Seth Meyers and host of The Amber Ruffin Show, Amber Ruffin lives in New York, where she is no one's first Black friend and everyone is, as she puts it, "stark raving normal". But Amber's sister Lacey? She's still living in their home state of Nebraska, and trust us, you'll never believe what happened to Lacey.
