We
are adding lots of new bargain books. What
is a bargain book? Whenever a publisher changes
or discontinues a specific edition of a book
they may sell off the remaining inventory
at a discount. We are able to pass this discount
to you. Our specialty, of course, is African
American literature, so we are on the lookout
for those titles. However, we are bringing
in titles that cover a wide spectrum of topics.
Expect to find discounts of 40 - 80% off of
the publishers' list price. The books are
usually in new or like new condition. You
may find a remainder mark (a line or dot on
the page ends) to prevent the books from being
returned as full-price books. |

Midnight
is a hustler-but one with a mindset and a mission.
A tall, dark, and handsome hero in his own way,
Midnight would, in mainstream American society,
be characterized as a threat and dismissed as a
criminal. But in her beautiful, captivating style,
Sister Souljah reveals the heart of a man that readers
will love and cheer for until the very end. When
Midnight came to America from the Sudan, he was
just seven years old with a mother who spoke no
English and a baby sister on the way. Midnight has
to grow up fast on the violent and dangerous streets
of Brooklyn. Amidst the poverty and lawlessness,
Midnight must find some way to survive, thrive,
and defend his family and way of life-no matter
what it takes. |
