Esowon. Free. Haters.

Mood music: Ruff Neck by MC Lyte (YouTube link) (aah, that silly college dance routine... and memories of pursuing...)

OK. So first off, my favorite bookstore in L.A., Esowon Books, is moving from its LaBrea street location to Leimert Park like this weekend. They specialize in books by and about black people. This will totally make my Degnan Ave. visits much longer. Bruch. Books. Desserts at Lucy Florence Cafe. Eye candy. Yum.

OK. So another book you might want to know about. Someday We'll All Be Free by Kevin Powell. Another book of essays on race, politics, religion, politics. Should be a good read and resource. He never dissapoints and gives much to think about in black America... America in general.

OK. One more. Love this title: Haters by Alisa Valdes Rodriguez. A novel about the trials and tribulations of high school and the haters who make life... interesting... in that time of life. I've loved all of Alisa's novels. I'm sure this one will delight too.

That's all. Hope you have a Hater-free day!
