Summary: Good material for Jerry Springer and Ricki Lake!
Review: As I read Harris' lastest novel, I kept wondering why the world needs this work. It did not raise my intellectual temperature. The characters, as well as the writer, are so elitist...true buppies. I am not saying African-Americans do not lead these kind of successful lives, it was just that some of the elitism is hard to take.

The book is quick reading, and has its interesting tales of the lifestyles of the well-off. Its gossipy stories would naturally make it hard to put down, only because the reader wants to see what happens to these brats.

There were no interesting words flowing from Mr. Harris' pen. It is written at a 5th grade level, which I found interesting, given that the main characters are so well educated.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A Fan Left Wanting More!!!!
Review: I have read all of E. Lynn Harris books. I bought the book in Virgina Beach,VA. I did not leave the mall before starting to read the book. It was a slow start, but I was familiar with the characters, Raymond, Trent, Nicole, Jared and of course, bad boy Basil Henderson. I must confess after about 150 pages I had to read the ending. I was disappointed with the ending. After going back and reading the reminder of the novel, the ending was quite unique, it made me think about life, the adjustments we make for others in our lives and for the things in their lives we can not change. I am looking forward to discussing this novel with the members of our book club(Sistah to Sistah) on next week, we are be fans of E. Lynn Harris. Anticipate reading his next work. Keep the good work E.Lynn!!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Boring, boring, boring
Review: I am truly disappointed with Mr. Harris's current novel, Abide With Me. I yawned throughout the entire novel and felt I just could have read his previous novels again. There wasn't anything new or exciting in this book. I am truly disappointed. How I wish for a refund!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful
Review: Once again E. Lynn Harris has written a novel, that is so good, you can't wait to read the next chapter. I sure hope that there is a sequel.

Congratulations, Mr. Harris on a job well done. I have enjoyed everyone of your novels. Keep up the good work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Once again E. Lynn Harris has done it again.
Review: Mr. Harris has again delivered a spell binding novel. After starting to read Abide With Me, I was hooked for start to finish. His writing styleflows freely and is very easy reading. His small chapters keep you well abreast on each of the characters. Each of the characters; Raymond, Basil, Jared, Nicole, Peaches, and other, were well developed. With each twist of the characters came a surprise and guessing what next.

Mr. Harris could continue this series for years to come. I eagerly await his memoir.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: FREAK OUT HONEY! THIS BOOK IS A PARTY!!
Review: I am so very proud of Mr. Harris. I've now completed all of his novels and this was definitely a book that made me want to dance... made me want to sing... and ultimately made me cry. I was especially moved by the ending and did not find it at all unsatisfying as I know some have suggested. I also want to recommend "The Coldest Winter Ever" and "Pseudo Cool" for additional riveting reads about African Americans. Queen Lakisha!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another E.Lynn Harris hit, now I know why I'm a huge fan
Review: As part of a continuing story Mr. Harris has done it again. Not only did I enjoy it but as usual I was inspired and fill with interesting reading that just filled me with something I don't have enough space or time to write about so all I can say is get the book read the book and if you haven't read an E.Lynn Harris book you don't know what your missing. I have read all of his books and he has not let me down yet.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This was definitely another winner!!!! A must-have book !
Review: I enjoyed another edition from E. Lynn, the ending kind of left me hanging. There just has to be another one to follow this one. I could not stop reading it. I would get angry when I was disturbed from my reading.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Couldn't put it down.
Review: As usual, with all of E. Lynn Harris' books I was mesmerized until the end. I hope this isn't the end of this saga.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: E. Lynn gets better and better !!
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I could not put it down. I read the book in two days. I can't wait for the next book. I hope he doesn't stop with these characters. I'm curious to see how Basil will deal with the devilette!! Keep'em coming E. Lynn!!
