Way Back Wednesday

I was in high school advanced English and my teacher introduced me to this very adult book that started me on my journey to urban fiction. Of course my teacher forewarned me that this book had very adult themes but was good read nonetheless. I know Terri McMillian is an oldie but goodie but this book Disappearing Acts is a classic. When I tell you this book put me hip to game way before I even had an adult relationship. Ladies take a stroll down memory lane with me and pick up some of those classic books that started you on the path to many others. 

Way Back Wednesday

So I completely got this idea from fellow blogger @monica reeds She has this piece on her own blog called throwback Thursday. Which is where she posts old school books. When I was in undergrad one of the things that the girls and I loved to do was discuss books that really touched us. I mean we had some very lively discussions especially if that book turned into a movie. i.e Their Eyes Were Watching God You couldn’t tell us we all didn’t want a man like Tea Cake.

The point is that these “old school” books spark emotion and have the good feeling sentiment. Below I have posted an old school book Flyy Girl By: Omar Tyree. I read this book actually in high school and let me tell you this book got passed around on the bus several times. I mean Tracy was something else. The type of chick that many called ride or die and stayed fresh while doing it. List some books for you below that are what I call way back!
