Hmm.. was it only two years ago when people were saying African American lit was the NEXT BIG THING? Well, as we used to say in the 80's.. PSYCHE!

I thought you were just joking.

"Psyche" is right!

I thought there would at least be a couple of AA titles on the list.

I would be curious to see YOUR "best of" list!

Interesting list. Now hold onto your sense of humor: AA lit is always hot over at Essence where "urban fiction" seems to be king, or maybe Queen...and always on the list of bestsellers (Mercy!)
