Good Books....Talented Writer Rating:
5 / 5
As a black man, I love books that glorify black men. I was introduced to the writing of this author by a book store owner in my town. I asked for good fiction where men weren't made to look like snakes and her first words were "Have you read anything by Kendra Norman-Bellamy." With the option to bring the books back for a refund if I didn't like them, I walked out of the store with every one of her titles. That was Saturday. Today is Wednesday. I read all four of her books in five days and I loved every one of them. I can't say that I've experienced love like the folks in A Love So Strong, For Love & Grace, and Because of Grace, but it was kwel to read about black love and survival despite the odds and the forces that fight against them. I'm more of a Jhordan kind of guy in Crossing Jhordan's River. I got issues, but I'll bust a ni**** in the mouth if he messes with my family. All of these books were great and it was good to read about brothers who fought for their women and the survival of their marriage. I think I'm a fan.
Beautifully written story Rating:
5 / 5
My book club read this book and discussed it for our February meeting after reading "A Love So Strong" by this same author and enjoying it so much. Speaking for the entire reading group, this book (just like the other one) deserves a standing ovation. We loved the realness and the tenderness of this story and how well it all mingled in with the drama and suspense. The members of Author2Author Book Club are true Kendra Norman-Bellamy fans. We have chosen her third novel for our June meeting and look forward to reading and discussing it.
Three Cheers for GREG...oh, yeah, and Grace too. Rating:
5 / 5
Dr. Gregory Dixon not only stole Grace's heart in For Love & Grace, but he stole my heart and the hearts of every woman in my book club. I speak for all the ladies of Author2Author Book Club when I say that we appreciated the characters in this book so much. All of us found people in the story who were just like family members of ours. Greg was the only one who was foreign to most of us. We don't know a man quite like him, but we do know that they exist and have vowed to hunt him down like a dog until we find him. This author has found a group of fans in Melbourne, Florida who will always be on the lookout for whatever she's writing next. Ms. Norman-Bellamy, thank you so much for inspiring a group of aspiring writers who all want to grow up to be you!
