Summary: The Book That Started It All
Comment: Mama was one of the first books I ever read outside of school. I enjoyed this book very much. It was a page turner. While reading the book I felt like I was right there. Everyone of the characters (in the family) reminded me of someone in my family.
Mildred was a hard person but felt she had to do what she thought was best. You want to hate her but you can't. This book will have you up all night and you won't care what time it is, you just want to know what happens next. I recommend this book to anyone.

Summary: Mama mirrored segments of my life.
Comment: Terry McMillan put much of my life into words with Mama. This book helped me realize there is a purpose for everyone, and sometimes our problems are not so unique. It helps you get over yourself and start to look for your own answers, instead of snuggling up with your all-too-familiar problems. Viscious circles will allow you to fester and die, not far from where you began, but a straight path from here will at least get you somewhere else. Although, Waiting to Exhale, is not a "sequel" it does seem to progress to the next phase of life for young black women, therefore, I would begin the Terry McMillan experience with Mama, and then read Waiting to Exhale, following with either How Stella Got Grove Back or Disappearing Acts. In all honesty, I was disappointed in the movie Waiting to Exhale, it does not substitute for the book. Each woman is more evolved in the book, however Angela Bassett did handle her business!
Rating: 4
Summary: Eye openning
Comment: I enjoyed this book very much. My inintial interest in the book was from a purely clinical curiosity, but after several chapters I was riding the emotional roller coaster right along with Mildred and her children. I will certainly recommend this book to others.
