Summary: Pretty Good
Comment: This book was pretty good, but predictable. To me, the ending seemed rushed. None of the characters stories were never really closed out. Maybe he did that to leave room open for a second book. There were alot of things unanswered for me when I finished the book, but it was still entertaining.

Summary: E.Lynn Does It Again!
Comment: As I was having dinner one night with a friend not too long ago, he told me about E.Lynn Harris' latest novel, 'Just Too Good To Be True'. I couldn't wait to get to the nearest Borders book Store the next day to purchase a copy. When I arrived at the book store, they were all sold out. I went to a 2nd store, and they had sold out there as well. They say 3rd is a charm. I found the book a the 3rd store, and I finished that book in 2 days. I simply could not put it down!
Just Too Good To Be True is totally different than any of Harris' previous works. The story of a mother's unconditional love for her son, was something that I could relate too. Although Carmyn Bledsoe's methods were questionable, you found yourself empathizing with her on so many levels.
Brady Bledsoe is a young who has lived half his life being the apple of his mother's eye. In her mind, Brady can do no wrong. How could he when he lives his life according to the example set by his mother. You'll be surprised!
Just Too Good To Be True is about putting your trust and faith in the wrong person, and about forgiving yourself and others when you realize the mistakes you've made. It's about well kept secrets that find a way of rearing their ugly heads.
Just Too Good To Be True was a total enjoyment to read, and I fully recommend running out and purchasing your own copy if you haven't already. Don't borrow this book from the library or a friend "Black Folks"! Go buy your own copy. It is worth every penny.

After I read and meditated on the word of God I would find myself reading this novel.. I love E. Lynn Harris' work and he's a phenomenal man and he's very inspiring. Oh and he loves his RAZORBACKS!!!!

Summary: Never a let down:)
Comment: This book was good from beginning to end. E. Lynn Harris never lets me down, although I wish something more would have happened to Barrett for the role she played in the story but alls well that ends well.. Keep up the good work. I can't wait for the next book:)

Summary: A slightly different slant
Comment: For me E Lynn has come through once again. I started this book on a Saturday morning and was done by noon on Sunday. I appreciated that this book was "non-Basil" based and really enjoyed the story line. The story focuses on the relationship of a mother and son as well as on some of the pitfalls of the professional sports world. All in all it went down like a good glass of wine- smooth end enjoyable. I hope this next book doesn't take this long. :-)
