I haven't read that one yet, but I read "God Don't Like Ugly". That was an awesome book. It still amazes me that she withstood abuse for so long. Now, I am thoroughly disappointed in "Flyy Girl" by Omar Tyree. I went ahead and put it down. Now, I'm struggling through "Their Eyes Were Watching God" , but the language is a little difficult for me to get through.

And now they have an even BETTER system...if you WANT the books, just X it and send it in...if not, you don't have to do anything---they will not send you books! I love this new system because although I would send my "decline" invoice, it never failed, I always ended up with books I didn't want!

I just sent in my May order this week. I ordered brotha-man some books for Father's Day. I plan on sneak-reading them before I wrap them up and give them to him as I look all innocent. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Thanks for the update, Shalom!

hey everyone ive been a member of black expressions for two years now....i've finished my memberhsip agreement but i continue to order books from them because i love reading and i can get the books at a discount price..i must admit that they're going through some things with the website because i too cannot log in but they're a good book club and i think people should give them a chance.. i am also a memeber of double day book which is also a great book club..but if u want to purchase books from african american others black expressions is the club for you because they ahve a larger collectiion..peace

Another option is the local Black bookstore. There are two where I live. I know I can get the books much cheaper at the bigger stores. But I try to buy as many of my books there as possible, I don't want to see them close down. They were carrying books when the other ones wouldn't.

Lovely, I feel you.
The National President of DST owned a bookstore here locally and it closed recently do to lack of business. I think that should not have happened. It was nery, very nice.
