Spring makes its exit
Originally uploaded by Negritude828.
On the way home yesterday this was the sunset I saw. It was 100 times more brilliant than this but all I have was my camera phone so I guess this will have to do. I wish I had my camera on me to truly capture it but alas....I left it at L's house. In the essence of all things that are beautiful I also finished reading this novel called Up.state by Kali.sha Buck.hanon. For her first novel she did an EXCELLENT JOB.

It was about love in its purest and simplest form. AHHH First Love. I remember my first love, it seems like forever ago although I don't think I had quite as much dedication to him as this girl had to her boyfriend. When I moved away the phone calls ceased and so did the spring time love affair. Let me give you a little background, the boyfriend in the book got locked up sent upstate as it were and she remained in Harlem. It just tells of their life and their struggle but it is done in letter form, so each letter relays what is going on and the dynamic of their relationship. You can see their change in each letter and at the end...well I wont give it away, but there is a twist to the story. I recommend!

I should have read that instead of the Prisoner's Wife... I was so disappointed in that read.

all I have was my camera phone so I guess this will have to do. I don't know about you dear, but that's an awfully good picture for a camera phone. I think the essence of that sunset was truly captured. Great job. Thx for sharing!

I co-worker of mine actually mentioned this book and said it was a real page turner. But now that I know that you've read it, it must really be good.

I just placed an order for it on Amazon.

*Trying to remember what camera phone you had when I saw you* Can you tell that I'm jealous? I pay $374 plus tax for a camera phone, and I can't anything that remotely resembles that...And by the way, you take the sexiest pictures (no homo...I'm talking about the pictures that you take and capture so eloquently..lol) I want to frame them and hang them all around. LOL..

cee
