Summary: A Fast, Fun and Sensational Ride
Comment: This was my first time reading an E. Lynn Harris book and I was thoroughly impressed with "Not a Day Goes By", a story about John Basil Henderson and his bride-to-be Yancey Harrington Braxon. They both have secrets that threaten to destroy their impending union and E. Lynn keeps you gripped to your seat as you're taken from one dramatic scene to another on the couple's quest to reach the altar.
The plot was tighter than tight and remained on focus throughout the book. This means that every scene and every character added something and was built upon the central theme of the story. Because the plot was so tight, you must give a nod to his editor because only good editing can make a book read as well as "Not a Day Goes By."
From the drama surrounding Basil and his past, to the antics of Yauncey and her unforgettable mother, Ava, E. Lynn's characterizations are strong and noteworthy. They are realistic characters and you are allowed to feel their every mood. I actually noticed when I was laughing and/or shedding tears (a rarity for me) during the most hilarious and sensitive scenes.
This book is the epitome of a page turning novel. The outstanding writing, awesome plot twists, memorable characters, and laugh really loud dialogue should make "Not a Day Goes By" one of the most commendable novels of the year.

Summary: Thoroughly disappointed!!
Comment: It pains me to even say how disappointed I am in this book. I am a E. Lynn Harris fan to the hilt. I've read & so enjoyed ALL of his other books. But this time I am floored & almost speechless. I guess I expected a whole lot more out of this book & out of the characters, especially out of John "basil" Henderson. He is one of those characters that you love to hate & hate to love. But in this effort "Basil" was just plain corney!!! I'm sorry E. Lynn but it seemed that this book was very rushed & not well thought out. I know you could have done a lot better! I found myself checking the cover to make sure I read the name of the author correctly. Please if you are going to write another one (which the ending seems to make the reader believe that) please, please go back to the writing style you used in your other books. Make the characters real & believable, not corney & just plain stupid. Readers: SAVE your money on this one, borrow the book or by paperback. I'm in tears here because I really like E. Lynn Harris as a writer & story teller, but this was not a good book at all. Sorry :(
