review 1: I thought I should write a better review.So this was a short read from Eric Jerome Dickey, I think it can fall under the category of novella. It tells a tale of a character I hoped he hadn't laid to rest Nia Simone Bijou (if you haven't read Pleasure i suggest you do.) It begins when she finds a box from college with old pictures. Instead of memories that you would think she might cherish, she stares at them in anger and resentment, and the rest of the tale is a flash back at her first love, and her first heartbreak. Eric Jerome Dickey is one of my favorite writers because someone he can write from a female perspective and it's so believable. His words are raw and poetic at the same time. This didn't fall short to me in anyway. Even though he fed you bits and pieces of the... more end, and even though I could see how it was going to end, I still couldn't put the book down. I loved it. Especially because in a way I can relate to it. Seeing that this is release a month before Decadence, another novel featuring Nia Simone, I can only wonder if this novella is going to have some relevance to Decadence. One can only wait and see.
review 2: One of Eric Jerome Dickey's heroines is back: Nia Simone Bijou. In this special eBook release, Nia's memories are triggered while going through an old box. It is filled with old Kodak photos, letters, newspaper clippings and a journal of Love Is sayings. Everything was new and exciting during this part of Nia's life. She was an impressionable student at Hampton University that fell in love with athlete Chris Eidos Alleyne.Young freedom. Dorm life. Passion. Sex and orgasms. This best describes Nia's college days. I enjoyed reading her memories written in that descriptive, sensual way that EJD is known for.Literary Marie of Precision Reviews less
