    HOOKED

    I was HOOKED when I first turned on to E. Lynn Harris. I can't remember which book I read first but I have read them all except A Love of My Own but it's in my TBR pile. My favorite being Any Way The Wind Blows.

    TOP OF MY LIST

    I THOUGHT THAT THIS BOOK ALONG WITH THE OTHERS WAS VERY INTERTAINING. I THINK THAT HE IS A VERY GOOD WRITER AND THAT HE SHOULD MAKE MOVIES OUT OF HIS FILMS. HIS BOOKS ALWAYS KEEP ME WANTING MORE.

    DICEY & SPICY AS USUAL

    I somehow missed this book when it first came out although I had read the books precending and a few after. However, as with the others, it held my attention until the end. Still filled with juicy characters and Mr. Harris's 'G-flavor', all I can say is that Mr. Harris truly has a gift for storytelling. One thing bother's me however, and that it that his books seem to glorify premiscuity -- can anyone spell HIV AND AIDS?

    AS GOOD AS ALL HIS OTHERS

    E. Lynn Harris is a wonderful author. I have read all but two of his latest books (one hasn't been released yet) and can't wait to start them. He has opened the minds of so many of my 'narrow-minded' friends. They all laughed and made fun of me when I told them what his books were about, now they're beating me to BN and buying them before I am. Keep up the good work!

    A Real Approach to Black Sexuality

    'If This World Were Mine' provides a new meaning for black sexuality, particularly the black male. The dynamics of E.Lynn Harris' ability to communicate truth and honesty is amazing. It has been over a year since I have read the text, but the joy of reading such an accurate depiction of many gay black lives, straight ones too, has allowed me to reflect upon new possibilities and limitless opportunity. As our society continues to depict men who 'become' gay as nasty and disgraceful, Harris introduces us to this as more of a mystery. Indeed, being gay is a mystery. Especially, when we began to think spiritually and the interconnected characteristics that no longer serve as stereotypes but commonalities. Harris has his finger in this book and his other texts also pinpoint the dynamic of this long, lost, and sometimes unavailable mystery of black sexuality.
