1.  The book we reviewed for you was FAME. This was a poetry book. Would you consider this your genre? If so, why?                                                                                              Yes, poetry is my genre. The reason why poetry is my genre is because this is what I have been most comfortable with writing.

It is a toss-up between Midnight Flower and Highs and Lows.

It would be with Dr. Jawanza  Kunjufu because I can feel his passion coming through his writings.
