Bulletproof Diva

Summary: Better the 2nd time around
Review: I bought this book about 5 years ago, read it, loved it, then put it on the shelf. I've recently picked it back up and read it a 2nd time. I loved it even more. The essays are sharp, well-written, funny and "real". This is writer who truly loves being black and female and it shows in every word. I especially loved her insight into the "rainbow babies" as she loves to call interracial folks. This is book that you can pick up time and time again and still learn something new!

Ms. Jones, where's the 2nd collection of essays?

Summary: This book is a must read for every woman
Review: I purchased this book when I was still a teenager, and to be honest, I dont remember what attracted me to the book. I like to consider it one of those moments where fate leads you to somthing that will make life-journies a lot easier.

Bulletproof Diva became "my bible" I carried it in my bookbag along with my schoolbooks and dreamed of becoming a woman like Lisa Jones who so eloquently articulates her lessons her passions, her battles and her life. I am now 26 years old, and my worn dog eared copy of this book (which has survived a building collapse, two moves and several tempermental boyfriends) is still listed as a favorite.

I hope that it will inspire, elevate and nourish your soul, as it has mine!

Review: I read this book in a 11th grade English Composition Summer School Class, my teacher was realitivly new and wanted to keeps us interested, so out comes the class trip to a local Bookstore to hear Ms. Jones read from her Book. All week long we had been going over it and I was impressed! Being a young Black female I could totally relate to the issuse in the book especially the ones on hair. In person Ms. Jones is very personable and funny. Reading this book and meeting her in person has given me the determination to continue my writing career in hopes that I too will become one of the Lisa Jones of the World. The Book itself is Funny,Interesting and at times very emotionally charged. I recommend it highly

Review: She needs to write another and another and another. I thought I was actually there in her memories....real time....in color. I have read this book several times and I am suggesting it to be read for a book club I belong to. A great read!!!!!
