You "Go On Girl"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I think I read about your book in Essence or saw it on Oprah, can't remember, but I am so glad that I did. It has helped me start a book club with a few friends that enjoy reading, but also just enjoy the company of other african-american women. It's a great way to get away from the husband and kids and bond with your friends. One thing that we are going to add to our club is a community kitchen, we will be cooking with one another also. Great book!
A "Must Read" for the casual or serious reader!

This book is just what I needed to start a book club in my area. I have not quite read all about the different authors. Telling us from start to finish is the best outline I have ever read in starting a project like this one. Thanks so much for sharing a book like this for African American women.I will keep you in touch about the one I am going to attempt to start here in Columbia ,Tn.
A wonderful smogasboard of literature

This book is more than just a guide to starting your own book club. It includes lots of excerpts from wonderful fiction that the Go On Girls members have read--folks like Tina McElroy Ansa and Octavia Butler, April Sinclair, Valerie Wilson Wesley, Diane McKinney Whetstone, Walter Mosely--a lot of great Black writers, plus Q & As with each one, and a reading guide. It was more than I expected, a delight overall.
