Upcoming Author visit next week!



Michele Andrea Bowen will be visiting our little library on Thursday, April 30 at 10:30 AM. Her latest book, Up at the College, was just released earlier this month.

Review from Booklist -

Yvonne turned her life over to God when her husband divorced her and she moved back to Durham, North Carolina, with her two early-teen daughters. Now employed by Eva T. University as an adjunct professor, she attracts the attention of sexy basketball coach Curtis Parker, who struggles between his faith commitment and his urge to be in control. It’s up to the faithful—such as Yvonne, her cousin Maurice (assistant coach and good friend), and Curtis’ grandmother—to convince him that only when he walks with God will he be successful in the current basketball season and fulfilled in his personal life. Bowen’s newest release in the black Christian fiction genre revisits characters from earlier novels while it offers an entertaining mix of humor, morality, and steamy relationships as well as an intimate portrayal of academic politicking and college sports.


Michele Andrea Bowen's other books include
Second Sunday (2005)
Holy Ghost Corner (2008)
Church Folk (2002)
