What's Going On Here?
There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

The Tricky Thing about Short Stories...
is that sometimes they are uneven, especially when written by different authors. I have to say that was NOT the case with Black Enough: Stories of Being Young and Black in America. It was edited by Ibi Zoboi and I have read two of her books and one of her short stories and I loved them all. I also loved so many of these stories...like the guys growing up the south and falling in love. This was just such a great collection of voices that not only need to be heard but man...the world is so much better when they are.
