All of Zane's books are basically porn. I thought "Addicted" was stupid - she wasn't addicted, she was just a ho. I couldn't bring myself to read any of her other books.

Those Teri Woods ghetto books are modern "Iceberg Slim" books. "True 2 Da Game"..."B-More Blues" - is that the right title? Straight up ghetto trash. Books with typos irritate me. They need to hire me to edit.

But the book that I would not recommend to my worst enemy is...drumroll...some of y'all knew it was coming...

OUR KIND OF PEOPLE by Lawrence Otis Graham. The man is an idiot. If you must read it, please get it from the library rather than spending money on it. That was one of the worst pieces of crap I ever wasted my time on - after my book club read it, I wanted to have a group book burning.

I also didn't like "The Hand I Fan With" - isn't that the one with the ghost boyfriend that was screwing her brains out? I couldn't get into it - I kept thinking, "But he's not real!! She's crazy!" "Ugly Ways" too - that was the ghost dead mother, right? The author spends too much time describing folks clothes, cars, etc. Get to the story - I don't need three pages describing Lena's outfit from head to toe...we know she's fly cuz you already told us over the last 25 pages, geesh!
