Now i love to read but some Black authors go for the same ol' **** selling **** while gettn ******* (no offense) soo tell me whats yur favorite book from a blck author. Mines would be white lines by tracy brown.. Its a great book
I actually have two that I love and are my favorites. First is Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston the imagery is awesome, and second is Redemption Song by Beatrice Berry this book drew me in and made me feel like I was in the book. James Baldwin is a great author and I tend to be drawn more to older works because they have a different feel and tone.

The list goes on and on.
