My Readers Spot and the Covers of the series they keep hot!
(dedicated to my loyal readers!)
This page will contain actual pictures, reviews or writings from the readers of Black Coffee's Novels and Short Stories. Their reviews were previously added at the beginning of the next installment but the reviews were starting to command too many pages. We [my readers and I] felt it would be better to set up a page on my website to showcase them and/or their comments. And they suggested I save every page in the novel for the story they're enjoying. Well as I always do, I listened to them.
I dedicated this page to you, my loyal readers. Thanks for always being here and supporting my work.-Black Coffee, always!

U may lQQk @ me with major disbelief
BUT understand me when I say I am a sign of relief
some things I do and say u may not agree
BUT understand me when I say this is me
lied on cursed out cheated on misused 
and most def abused
BUT understand me when I say I am a work m progress
who R U 2 judge me, the way I speak, act, and dress
worrying about me u only brings yourself major distress
I only have 1 judge and u r NOT it
so take a step back not much just a bit
and watch my GOD do his thing
when u notice the changes that's being made
maybe then is when u understand me and u will ask him to do the same
BUT please please UNDERSTAND me when I say WHEN u change NEVER EVER be ashamed!!!

I love your books, at times it seems like Ebony's life is going just like mine. Like how the parents don't care if the boys date but they care if the girls do, how her relationship is with her friends and parents, and how persistent she is when she really wants something and works hard to get it. That's why I can connect to her and why I read the books. Once I start reading one of your books I can't stop because it's so much like my life. I can't wait for more to be published.

When I discovered Black Coffee while on FB I never knew she would become my favorite Author!  E Lynn Harris once was on my #1 Reading List ~ After his passing I was trying to figure out who would take his place. When I read I want a book that I live with 24/7. A Book that can't be put down! A Book that make me feel like I'm actually involve in the story!  A Book that will take me on an Emotional Roller Coaster!!!!  
Well I'm so happy I discovered an Excellent Author Black Coffee who was able to give me that Novel!!!! Love Her For that! May God Continue Blessing Her!  She's my Favorite Author!!!  Keep the books coming!!!!!

Dear black coffee,
First off i have to tell you, parts 1-3 of Time Will Reveal are off the chain. I love them but i cant wait til September for part 4. I really need to keep up with my faveorite couple {Ajay & Ebony}I really love their fairy tale romance & of all of the 4some men & women, I'm lookin for them to make it, the most. They really deserve it after everything they've been through so please make a way for them to stay together & have a baby. Since the lost of their 1st one. Will part 4 be available in the book stores or will I be able to get it off the website? Please let me know cause I will have it as soon as it comes out.       Sincerely a Black Coffee fan, 
Patricia Carter

Hello Black Coffee,

This is Valencia White. I was the young lady at Richmond Mall in Cleveland, Ohio. I have finished Book 1 and I must say I haven't been able to deeply relate to any book that I have ever read until... Being that I am from Cleveland and the book setting is in Cleveland, the events that took place really hit home for me.. It was so hard to remember that the characters were young teens because the things they went through were soo crazy.. However, this is what makes the book so real... I couldn't go a day without reading the book. I actually found myself teary eyed when Stoney died. That's how into this book I was... Thank you so much for sharing your art and I can't wait to start reading part 2. Great Job... Part 2 review coming soon....

Thank You,
Valencia White, [Cleveland, OH

Review for Time to Learn: Time will Reveal Part 1

    The book that Black Coffee published, Time to Learn: Time will Reveal Part 1, was an awesome book.  This book is a page turner.  You will enjoy this book.  It is true to life and shows us the not so good part of Cleveland but will show that there are still good morals in the “ghetto”.  This book kept me interested.  It had great history about our fight for freedom.  She kept in mind about how we have come from slavery to being treated like the “white man”.   This book made me cry it kept me on the edge of my seat and I cannot wait until I read Part 2.  Ebony and Anthony is my idea of a perfect couple.  The crew showed me that friendship runs deep from families even down to the grandparents and great grandparents.  It showed that they stayed together and they had each other’s back no matter what.  Also even they got into their share of arguments they still stayed together and worked things out.  There is so many life lessons in this book that I can not name them all.  You will just have to read the book yourself.
