I have tons since I read so much, however, listed below are my TOP TEN.

1. The Coldest Winter Ever
2. Sister Sister by Eric Jerome Dickey
3. Friends and Lovers by Eric Jerome Dickey (in the works I heard)
4. Cheaters by EJD
5. Milk in My Coffee by EJD
6. Mama by Terry McMillan
7. Scenes of a Sistah by Lolita Files
8. Getting to the Good Part by Lolita Files
9. Your Blues Ain't Like Mine by Bebe Moore CAmpbell
10. Brothers and Sisters by Bebe Moore Campbell

This is NOT even 1/2 my list but I want to hear what you think.
I've read books # 1, 2, 5, & 6 (will get around to buying and reading # 3 & 4), and agree that these should become movies. However, I have my personal preference on who should play the main characters in "The Coldest Winter Ever."

1. Winter- Taral Hicks
2. Ricky Santiaga- Giancarlo Esposito
3. Midnight- Omar Epps, Richard T. Jones, or Mo Chest
4. Mama Santiaga- Khandi Alexander
5. Natalie- Lil' Kim

As for Mama by Terry McMillan, I really have no preference as to who'll play the children, but I think the Mama Mildred Peacock should be played by no other than Millie Jackson!!! She just seems too perfect for the part!

Those are my rays of sunshine. Until next time, people!!!
