Just read them for yourselfclp)

My favorite book is relatively new. Its title is Motive, Means and Opportunity: Probable Cause for Indicting George W. Bush, his Sponsors and Aides for the Attack of September 11, 2001 (ISBN 0-9652664-4-3). This is a book that should be read by all people who refuse to live in denial about the criminal activity of the white power structure.

A Time To Kill by John Grisham. I read the book before I saw the film and it's been stuck in my head ever since. I think it's because the film actually did the book justice, especially the twist at the end where Samuel L Jackson's lawyer deliveredhis summary (that part wasn't in the book). More time when a book is made into a film the film doesn't do the book justice for numerous reasons, but I was pleasantly surprised.

The Silent Twins by Marjorie Wallace. I saw this book on my mother's bookshelf, the title caught my attention so I read the back, then I put the book back on the shelf. I did that a good few times before I actually took the book off the shelf completely and started reading. This book is so intense and gripped me so much that I was crying at the end of it. I was drawn into the lives the twins lived as if I was living it with them. If anyone reads this book they would know exactly what I'm talking about

Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison and Another Country by Jame Baldwin...I love the way they depict the lives of African Americans between the 1920s-1970s and the way they're written....magical!

My favourate book is Thugs are for fun by J.Gail.

Thank u BN for getting me hooked on this book

I have a few...:

1) "July" by Karen Roberts

2) "The River Between" by Ngugi - absolutely fantastic, we need to learn out of books like this at school instead of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" over and over again!

3) "Men Cry in the Dark"- can't remember the author

4) "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe
