    Cicely Tyson’s memoir was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed learning more about who she was. I’ll have to check out the other books you mentioned.
    Edit: Viola Davis’ book was really good too.

    I believe i read that Cupcake is a lawyer now. This book made me very emotional years ago. I still recommend it to everyone

      Oh wow so happy for her! She had been through so much. It really is an emotional read.

    I will definitely read these books!Ashley says so video provides a lot of insight on Miles Davis and Miss Tyson relationship. Thank you!

    These are excellent recommendations. I think I'll start with Somebody's Daughter. Glad to hear that Cicely Tyson tells so much, I would love to read her memoir.

    Wow, I hadn't heard of The Dragons, the Giant, the Women! I'll have to check that one out

    These all sound good. I don’t read memoirs, but maybe I should make an exception to the rule. I hope you do the Miles Davis book-I’d like to hear about it and see how his “take” on the relationship jibes with Tyson’s.

      I think the key to enjoying memoirs is picking up one’s about folks you’re interested in. I didn’t used to be a fan myself.

    Bad Fat Black Girl and Finding Me were my some of my top reads of last year. I learned so much from both of those women, and I am interested in learning more from the ones you introduced me to.

      "if you withhold information history can repeat itself" *clap clap* yes! so many things in the family that turn up years later like ummm that would have been helpful to know!

    Miles Davis's Autobiography is amazing, and of course, Dion Graham narrates the hell out of that book. They also talk about Richard Pryor in it, and his biography Furious Cool is a wild ride, too.

    • @ChocolateCoveredPages
      @ChocolateCoveredPages  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ohhh thanks for confirming girl! I knew Dion wouldn’t disappoint. Let me check out Furious Cool.
