My sister invited me to a reading last night by Jacqueline Luckett.
She has written a novel, "Searching for Tina Turner," about a woman in crisis. It's already been selected as an "Essence" Magazine recommended read and this is only Ms. Luckett's first book!

It was a nice event with a very interesting group of people, amazing "pupus" and drinks and even homemade chocolate chip cookies (which were to DIE for) made by Jacqueline's mom. . .and how in the world did I not know about Books, Inc.???
Anyway, their newest location is on 4th Street in Berkeley. It's cute, independent, well-stocked, friendly and just a couple doors down from Peet's Coffee.

This Bookstore is absolutely The Best. It is so well stocked with huge selection of books, magazines and periodicals with the most helpful staff I have seen in a bookstore in a very long time!! The location is so convenient - in midst of so many "need to go there" stores. Right across the street from Crate and Barrel in the former Napa Style Berkeley Fourth Street location. It's my new favorite place to buy books and magazines.
