Summary: Power, money and God...
Comment: I truly enjoyed reading this book (quick read). And it is a true indication of how some of these "preachers" can lose sight of everything (i.e Jesse Jackson). I can understand everything that Tanya had to come to terms with and how difficult her decisions had to be. We can often offer advise to others about their relationships, but never can take our own advise, often trying to show how our situation is "a little" different. And when you are the "first lady" of the church, not only is your marriage considered the sacrament but representation of the entire church family. So no matter what happens Monday - Saturday on Sunday you still have to look like a happy church family. With the growing number of 'called' preachers, reverands, evangelists and Bishops, I'm certain there will be many Tanya's to come. Overall the book offers a great story with a strong spiritual background. And it also shows how our deep roots and upbringing in the church affects how we deal with our marital relationship, the decisions we make and why we sometimes endure so much.

Summary: Deception, Greed, Lust
Comment: "Casting the First Stone" has them all. Ms. Roby took a true topic and turned it into a novel. Reading this book really drives home that sometimes "things or people are not always what they appear to be". Tanya did very well trying to stick it out with hopes that her husband, Curtis (a minister), would come to his senses and stop womanizing and focus on their marriage. Unfortunately, Curtis is so blinded by the money, the power and the women that he realizes his ordeal too late. Ms. Roby does a good job with the two main characters and focusing on their parts in the marriage. As I was reading Curtis' thoughts, I would wonder how he could be so self-centered. Everything was about his needs and wants without regards to who gets hurt in the process. This book is a good read because of its religious backdrops and the breath of reality you feel while reading it. This is a book that can be related to in some way.

Summary: Pastor Black is a MESS!!
Comment: I enjoyed this book. It was a little slow at times, but the more I read the more I enjoyed it. By the time I got towards the end of the book I didn't want to stop. The basis of the book is about Tanya trying to believe and wait on Pastor Black her husband to become the husband he should be. Pastor Black says one thing in the pulpit and does the opposite as soon as he says amen. The book is a trip. How long will Tanya wait on Pastor Black? Will his ways finally catch up to him? You'll have to read it. The book is really good!
