Summary: Why isn't my beauty shop like this?
Comment: I found all 4 stories to be quite good and commend all the writers. This is a must read for Valentine's Day. I met Ms. Mason and Ms. Ray at the Romance Writers of America Convention in Chicago last summer and have an autographed copy of this book and others.
Why can't I meet Mr. Right while getting my butter whipped (ha-ha!)? I highly recommend this to your collection of AA written books. Good Work Ladies.
Watch for the next writers convention and attend, it's really worth it.

Summary: Enjoyable, though trite and predictable.
Comment: I enjoyed these stories although, in the end, was extremely disappointed by their predictability and lack of depth. I was initially drawn by the concept of their being connected via Rosie's salon, yet the thread was barely visible. The first story, by far the most substantial of the four, set the tone, and none of the subsequent stories followed through. The least enjoyable and most unrealistic story was the second one. I felt no connection to, or empathy for, any of these people, and if not for the fact that the cover of the book portrayed Black women, I could have been reading about White people. And the salon - I would give my eyeteeth to find a salon such as this for ordinary women. Hopefully, it was the short story format which constricted these authors' creativity, because I enjoyed the stories and would like to sample more of their craft with more complex, fleshed-out characters and storylines. I would definitely recommend it as a light read, though, for the beach or a plane ride, etc.

Summary: Great Traveling Book
Comment: I picked this book up on vacation and I really enjoyed the short stories. I was particularly impressed with the stories written by Francis Ray and Donna Hill. I will probably buy the follow-up "Della's House of Style."
