Summary: A Book Soap Opera
Review: I did not care too much for ELH latest, "Abide with Me." In fact, I did not even care for the title of the book. The characters were too predictable and very simple. It was, in essence, too much of a fantasy world Everybody is, as in all the other novels, upper class and well to do. News flash: the majority of people are not like that. Also, there's an element of prejudice with facial features of the main characters: Green or Grey eyes, and "good hair?" All in all, the novel is more like a book soap opera. Personally, I think ELH has taken tips from junk writer Jackie Collins to sell books to black audience. Oh, by the way, there is no way ELH could ever write like James Baldwin.

Summary: ALMOST HAD ME!
Review: This latest novel by E. Lynn Harris was very good...but the ending had me longing for more. I wished it would have been a different type of ending but hey...what can you say...E Lynn is a genius when it comes to writing...and "Abide With Me" shows it. I can't wait for his next release...this book had me "HOT" with Basil and Raymond playing with fire. Oh well...buy it...you won't regret it. Maybe the next book will have a reunion with Basil and Raymond...even if it is in their dreams

Summary: Another Fabulous Creation
Review: E. Lynn Harris has created yet again another fabulous creation. Abide With Me not only shows how important it is to have friends, but also shows that everyone is not perfect. From Raymond to Nicole, all the characters had their own flaws and learned how to deal with them. If you have problems and don't know how to deal with them, then this book will give you insight on how to deal with everyday life's problems. But the book was just great! Can't wait for the next one!

Summary: Abide with me
Review: Hated it. I love his other books but I found myself only reading the chapters with Nicole and Yancy's drama. I tried to stick the book out thinking it just started off slow but to no avail this is the most boring book I have incountered yet with E. Lynn Harris. If you are a strong fan of his, wait for the next book! :(

Summary: What's the purpose
Review: I've read Lynn's book Invisible life, which I thought it was very well written and I enjoy reading about the characters. Abide With Me didn't keep my interest. I found myself skipping pages. The one character I did enjoy reading about was Basil. Maybe it's just me but I didn't catch the message or the purpose of this book.

Summary: Abide With Me
Review: I enjoyed this book as much as I did the others. I love the way E. Lynn writes about relationships. As I tell everyone, even if you don't like the idea of gay and bi-sexual people, they are a fact of life. I feel anyone who reads these books will have a better understanding of this lifestyle. I can't wait for his next book.

Summary: Forget Whatcha Heard!
Review: E. Lynn forgive me for not writing sooner. I read this book when it first came out and I loved this book. It gave me closure but at the same time I had to wonder about the two shady characters that finally hooked up. They could still lead you to another book altogether. It felt good seeing the angel at the end, too. If this world was the same, life would be so boring. You got to take the good comments with the bad. So do not get discourage from the negative comments. It's all good and makes you an even stronger writer. So hurry up with the next book. This book still had me speeding to the end! I loved it!

Summary: Up all night
Review: E Lynn Harris is an incredible writer. I've read all his books in order and they get better as I progess. His captivating way of telling a story, keeps you up all night wanting to know what happens next. Gun shy at first because of the issues involved in his plots, but now having read all of them, i would be depriving myself an enlightneing as well as fantastic mind trip if I didn't open myself to listen. His characters could be people I know, but don't know. And more than the intrigue of that alone, I believe he's helped someone deal with who they are by the way he shares so freely his story. His is a voice of a changing time. His is a voice that needs to be heard. He is a writer and his stories are well worth the read.

Summary: Very good book
Review: I loved this book, it fell right in line with the others, He is just a great writer an I look forward to his next book. I love the suspense and the fact that he left me hanging just means that there is more on the way. Love you E. Lynn!

Summary: SIMPLY THE BEST! ..BETTER THAN ANYONE!
Review: This author's style is impeccable. I read the first three novels with the same results-----I laughed,cried and sympathized with the characters. Next to Edgar Allen Poe, Mr. Harris is my favorite author. My ONLY complaint---I have to wait too long for the next book (2 years) YOU WILL NOT PUT HIS BOOKS DOWN! TRUST ME!
