Men, we have to read this book! No, Not just read it, feel it,
as it speaks enormous volumes to our very souls.
True inspiration in its purest form can be gained while
provoking thought and a healthy dialogue.
If you have ever wanted a look into the mind.......
no, "The Soul of a Black Woman,"
take a good long peek, it's more than worth the read!

This book is fantastic. Its takes you through a journey of a black womans life. Most black men can not understand why black women are so strong. In reading this book, I realized that struggle can make you or break you, and in this case, it made a strong black woman. Thank you for the experience, and thank you for opening my eyes.

The author C. Highsmith-Hooks did an excellent job of reaching out to the reader. The depth of emotions I felt cannot be explained in 1,000 words. Her poems took me on a journey filled with empathy, sadness, happiness, and triumph. Just when I think she's done; I am provided with a glimpse of talent not yet unleashed. I have not felt this way about poems since reading Maya Angelou who's work of art I hold very dear and close to my heart.
