  • Sonny's Blues belong to all of us!

    Thank you so much for this very earnest project. We need more books like this that speak to our collective experiences in America, and you have aptly chosen a title that sets the tone for what we will come to expect from Black Books Live. I was mesmerized and enthrall led from the opening line to the last poignant word. Bravo! Waiting for the next installment.
