Twenty-five stories, 25 beautiful sentiments about black women and love.<\/p>\n

That statement encapsulates Anondra \u201cKat\u201d Williams\u2019 black girl love<\/strong><\/em>, a scenic excursion of the black lesbian experience, from love to hate, from sex to love.<\/p>\n

There are several highlights of black girl love<\/em>. The best are ones that allow you to lose yourself in them. Like \u201clocs,\u201d where a lover waits patiently to connect with her harried wife through loving hair maintenance. \u201clunch\u201d finds two old friends catching up and right back to the mutual attraction that always lingers as they dine, while \u201cbuddies\u201d has two friends-with-benefits partakers silently falling for each other.<\/p>\n

Other highlights of black girl <\/em>love are the ones rooted in serious emotions. A partner respects her wife\u2019s choice to live in \u201cdecisions,\u201d and \u201ctrying\u201d is a masterpiece at showcasing a woman\u2019s many attempts to win her girlfriend back.<\/p>\n

The lion\u2019s share of black girl love<\/em>, though, is about desire. That resonates in most of Williams\u2019 tales, especially with the stories \u201cbreakfast\u201d, \u201clunch\u201d and \u201cdinner,\u201d lovers feasting on each other via words that ring true.<\/p>\n

Williams thoughtfully douses black girl love <\/em>with tenderness, humor, and real-life situations that make it hard to put down. It\u2019s a project she spent three year working on, and it shows in the fluidity of the book. In reading, you will picture yourself as one (or more) of Williams\u2019 characters, laugh, or loudly utter \u201cooh chile\u201d at something clever.<\/p>\n

Now those are the signs of a good book.<\/p>\n
