I will check out the book you recommended! Yes, Corina Corina, does reflect upon the human spirit and the human condition that when all is said and done....we are all looking for the same thing....acceptance, family, friends, truth, and love!

Hi Bennie,
Greeting from Norfolk, Virginia. I justed wanted to say that you have a great page!!! Also, I appreciate a guy who can admit and announce to the world that they liked the Movie Corina Corina(I too liked that movie...Whoopi was great) which would be considered a "chick flick"......LOL! Since you love books and music..may I suggest a couple to add to your list: Music- Jasmine Sullivan ( Her release date is in September) Books: The Known World & the Pillars of the Earth...Pillars is very long..shy of 1000 pages but it is an awesome read....you wouldn't think that the 12th central would be so fascinating!
