Terry McMillan
 

I have just begun reading Terry McMillan's new book "The Interruption of Everything" and its pretty interesting...dont' have a much of an opinion on it as of yet.

But I was wondering if anyone else was familiar with her work and if so what is your favorite book for hers and why?


I love to read, haven't had much time as of lately...any other suggestions on good books?

The HBO movie Disappearing Acts did not do her work justice. She's normally an excellent writer. I've heard conflicting reports about her new book, but I'll read it for myself.

I didn't like her last book.

My favorites would have to be Mama and Disappearing Acts. I read those in high school and I just thought she was a great writer.

My favorite is Waiting to Exhale, didn't really care for the movie.

Mama is a close second

I loved, loved LOVED "Waiting to Exhale" I bought her new book and am looking fwd to reading it

Another movie that didn't do the book justice. I forgot about Mama. That was really good.

I still don't have the newest one. I am a big Terry fan but my favorites are Disappearing Acts and A Day Late, A Dollar Short.

Ditto!

I actually liked her last novel. However, my fave is Disappearing Acts.

a few years ago I bought "A Day Late, A Dollar Short" but I have yet to sit down and read it.

My favorite of hers is "Waiting to Exhale" and believe it or not, "Stella". Although, I could just kick the sh-- out of the real-life character, I loved the book and couldn't put it down when I read it and actually liked the movie. I don't usually like books made into movies cause I love to read so much. Books are so much more real to me!! :)

I really love all of her books and can't wait to read this new one. There is a writing on her in Essence this month and I am glad to read that she seems to be doing fine.

I've read all of her novels with the exception of the latest release, but my favorites are A Day Late A Dollar Short, and Waiting to Exhale (the book was much better than the movie!)

I've read all of Terry McMillan's books. The Interruption of Everything was a good read.

I think my favorite book would be Mama, Waiting to Exhale, and Disappearing Acts.

Like everyone stated the movie versions of Waiting to Exhale & Disappearing Acts didn't do the book justice.

I just got it today from Black Expressions. I'll start on it tonight.

Did anyone read the interview with her about her divorce in Essence?

She said her ex started arching his eyebrows and wearing lip gloss!:eek:
