Sincerely Yours.......2007-02-27
I tought this book was very good, I enjoyed it from being to end. The authour said he done this one for the ladies and he really did. It was weather Sincere could hold it down while her man Suave was doing a bid. And you have to read the book to know if she holds it down or not.............
Sincerely Beautiful Hood Love Story..............2006-08-26
Sincere and her boyfriend of ten years Suave have the perfect dopeboy and wifey relationship. Both products of foster homes, Suave persuaded Sincere to run away from her abusive foster parents at the age of 15 and they never looked back. All the while he was becoming a successful drug kingpin he encouraged her to finish school and even paid her college tuition. She became a successful realtor making 70,000 a year.
Suave gets locked up and Sincere has to hold it down for the home team while he does a three year bid. She visited him faithfully, answered all of his calls, and wrote him sweet letters that were sprayed with her favorite fragrance and signed with her lipstick and the saying, "Sincerely Yours".
Sincere had only been with one man her whole life and she never cheated on Suave UNTIL she met officer D'Andre Jones. He was watched her visit Suave and wanted desperatelt to be in her life. HEr 36Ds, flat stomach, thick thighs and ASSets turned all of the men on in the prison but Mr. Jones had to have her. Because Sincere was vulnerable and horny, he succeeded. What started out as just sex ended up with Sincere having a crazed madman who didn't want anyone else to touch her p****-----not even Suave when he get out. This book has SUSPENSE but the ending will bring tears to your eyes. Suave learns of her cheating ways after finding an empty Magnum condom wrapper (they didn't use condoms) and a letter to her lover signed with her trademark "Sincerely YOurs". Can their love survive after Suave finds out that his love of ten years, whom he was faithful to, had slept with the enemy??? You have to cop this book to find out.........This book really teaches women a lesson. You reap what you sow. It also teaches men a lesson that love can conquer all.....
Please give it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!`.......2005-09-01
i have read 3 of this authors books and i was really dissatisfied. it always ends stupid and i never want to finish it once i put it down. it seems as if i want to give him a chance but all the ones that i buy are garbage, you have some good parts but thats maybe 3 time s out the whole book.
DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY $$$$$$$$$$$
I'm in agreeance with all other reviewers.......2005-04-19
A love to die for. Sincere (beautiful name) and Suave have it going on in their relationship and then he goes to jail for self defending himself. This book keeps you in suspense and keeps you wondering will their relationship survive. At first I didn't think I would like a book like this. I thought it would be boring and was told before. Man and woman are together strong. Then man goes to jail and woman turns into a **** until he gets out. People, this wasn't like that at all!!!! It was well written and Mr. Banks craftly writes about their relationship and makes you care about them and HOPE they never go separate ways. When Suave goes to jail you almost want to cry. I found myself praying for relationship. AWSOME JOB!!!!
Excellent Finale.......2005-04-15
Once again I must come back on here and give Mr. Banks his acknowledgements on another great story. Sincerely Yours is such a good story I am at a lost of words to describe it. If you are a true fan and have read the first two you will really appreciate the story Mr. Banks is giving us. He brought in new characters with a completely different story line.
Suave and Sincere relationship is one many people wish for. A man who doesn't cheat or hasn't the whole 10 years now that in itself was great. LOL no really their story was just so good and well put together. The addition of the old characters and their conclusions in this one was a great surprise. If you have not read any of his books honestly you will love all 3 you have to start with NO EXIT in order to appreciate the rest of them. Continued success and much love to Mr. Banks and his family.
I had the pleasure of talking to Mr. Banks personally not once did he mention the conclusion to my favorite two street stories. The only thing left to say is THIS IS A MUST READ!

A sermon, not a story.......2007-03-23
I am a Christian - raised in a "bible believing" (a phrase these authors love to use) home and I hated this book. If you want a sermon...read it. If you want a great story with interesting characters who have a smack of reality...don't. The dialogue was stilted (that's being nice). Here's a quote "Tomorrow I'm getting married and it's going to be the best day of my life, except for the day I became a child of Christ!" I know that sounds benign and even sweet but that kind of thing is said every two or three sentences. The characters are completely one dimensional with no real heart and no intellect. I almost kept reading just to see how bad these authors could make their characters...they did a great job.

Book Description
This is the fascinating story of Katherine Stewart MacPhail (1887-1974), the third daughter of Dr Donald MacPhail, a Glasgow physician. Following in her father's footsteps, she studied medicine at Glasgow University, qualifying in 1911. During the First World War she worked as a doctor in France, Serbia, Corsica and on the Salonica front. Following the war's end, she returned to Serbia in order to organise medical care for poor children suffering from tuberculosis, which was a serious medical and social problem at the time, and founded a special hospital for this purpose, first in Belgrade, and then in the village of Sremska Kamenica on the banks of the Danube, near the city of Novi Sad. Under her energetic leadership the hospital flourished, but she was obliged to leave it when Yugoslavia was occupied by the Germans during the Second World War. Returning after the war, she was once more forced to leave when the Communist government took over the hospital in 1947, spending the rest of her life in retirement in St Andrews, Scotland. This moving account of her life and work vividly reflects both the heroism and the tragedy of the twentieth century. All proceeds from the sale of the book will be donated to a charity set up to restore the "English Hospital" in Sremska Kamenica, as a memorial to Dr. Katherine MacPhail.

Customer Reviews:
Decent Book for a Weak Episode.......2003-01-21
I remember watching "Encounter at Farpoint" when it first aired with several high school friends, and the great groans of derision we all uttered when Deanna cried out, "I sense joy, Captain! Great joy!" The rest of the premier episode was hardly encouraging. It wasn't *terrible*, but it did not inspire great hopes, either.
David Gerrold took a generally weak episode and fleshed it out as best as anyone could do, but not even Shakespeare could have turned "Encounter at Farpoint" into a gripping read. There are, of course, a few problems with changed premises (for example, William "call me Bill" Riker and Picard's obsession with some woman named "Celeste"), but one can hardly blame Gerrold for that.
Great novelization!.......2002-09-06
David Gerrold did a wonderful job with the novelization of the episode that started The Next Generation! After purchasing the first season of TNG on DVD and watching Encounter at Farpoint I thought it would be interesting to go back and read this book again. If you want to get the few details of episode that weren't in it, read this. This is the Genesis of Star Trek The Next Generation!
Encounter at Farpoint - Where No Man Has Gone Before.......2002-03-24
This book was very good. If you're interested in learning some new information about the crew of the Enterprise-D, this is the place to start. I have been a trekkie for about 6 years, and I have read many books, but David Gerrold did a great job with this novelization. There are extra scenes and more information that in the TV episode.
Overall, this is a great book. A recommendation to anyone who wants a good read.
A good supplement to the TV episode.......2001-10-26
A good book, which copies the TV episode closely, with a few additional scenes. A good book to start with for all TNG newbies, if there is such a thing.
It's where it all begun for TNG.......2001-08-14
It's a good book, you get the chance to read what was going through some characters's minds but in this case, it is better just to watch the Episode. It's a classical... where it all begun.

Book Description
Belonging to the early thirteenth century, Hadewijch brings us a spiritual message of extraordinary power. She was endowed in no less degree than St. Teresa of Avila with the gifts of visionary mysticism and literary genius. She felt herself strongly a woman, as can be seen from her choosing to join the women's movement of her day, that of the Beguines, who dedicated themselves to a life of true spirituality without taking the veil.
Hadewijch understood that she was called to communicate to others the profound knowledge of the things of God granted to her in her mystical life. She directed her apostolate to some younger Beguines, and nearly all her writings, both prose and poetry, were intended for them. She mentions other spiritual friends, some in distant countries. Her experiences and her message, however , however, remained hidden; she attained to no celebrity among her contemporaries. The way of immediate fame was for other women mystics. St. Hildegard (1098-1179), the visionary and writer, enjoyed high reputation Clairvaux, and crowned heads. Hadewijch's contemporary, St. Lutgard (1183-1246), was widely known for her visions of the Sacred Heart, which won her the friendship of persons like the Master General of the Dominican Order and Duchess Marie of Brabant (daughter of King Louis VIII of France), and after her death made her tomb a place of pilgrimage. Where Hadewijch was buried, however, no one knows and her writings, after passing through the hands of John of Ruusbroec and his circle, were lost to sight until the nineteenth century.
Since the rediscovery of Hadewijch, her importance has been progressively appreciated, and the hidden dimension of her life is now open so that we may share it according to the particular needs of our own day.

GOD IS LOVE, and our souls yearn painfully to reunite with their Creator in Love.......2007-02-19
As we await eagerly the soon publication of a new biography of Reverend Mother Benedict Duss, Founder of the Abbey of Regina Laudis in Connecticut, let us revisit other publications which have flown from that wonderful profound and pure source of life.
The cover and chapter headings of this present volume are beautifully and meaningfully illuminated by the great artist and Benedictine nun of that Abbey, Mother Placid Dempsey, OSB. Please view the inside illustrations iconically as reflecting the visions of mystical love reported so well by the Belgium 13th century Catholic nun Hadewijch, of whom so little remains but her profound mystical writings.
We know so much of Saint Teresa of Avila, whose report of similar esctatic visions of mystical Love are even famously depicted in sculture in Rome. Yet of Hadewijch we know so little biographically, and have her only major work, her complete writings, including poetry, letters and prose, preserved for us now, translated and edited by the very able hand of Mother Columba (nee Elizabeth) Hart of the Abbey of Regina Laudis, as intelligent, spiritual, solidly theological and scholarly as an American Dorothy L. Sayers.
Hadewijch passes a much more painful vision of mystical Love, as she opens herself to experiencing the pain of a profound Love in exile, awaiting the earnestly longed for Divine Beloved. Hadewijch sees that as we grow in generous Love, as described in the sixth chapter of Saint Luke, loving generously those we most have reason to hate, so do we grow ever loser to the Divine Beloved, God, and capable of receiving God's infinite and pure love.
For example, in this comprehensive and excellent volume's page 103, we read:
I will tell you without beating around the bush: Be satisfied with nothing less than Love. (. . .) Never must any difficulty hinder you from serving people, be they insignificant or important, sick or healthy. And the sicker they are, and the fewer friends they have, the more readily must you serve them. And always bear with aliens willingly. As for all who slander you, contradict them not. And be desirous to associate with all who scorn you, for they make the way of Love broader for you.
As you can see from this citation, Mother Columba`s able translation makes this 13th century Belgian mystic`s words, exhortations and spirituality immediately comprehensible and applicable for us now in the new millenium. Hadewijch was a contemplative nun of the Beguine women`s movement which focussed on the mystery of Love mysticism, as Mother Columba fully and understandably explains in this excellent book of the Catholic Paulist Press`s Classics of Western Spirituality series, which also includes major works on, for example, Julian of Norwich, Saint Bonaventure, Origen, Saint Teresa of Avila, Saint Catherine of Siena, etc., whose names are so familiar but writings, teachings and spirituality less so.
I highly recommend this now quarter century old work by Mother Columba presenting this 13th century mystic as a way to perceive a truly Catholic way to God unconfused by our modern and uncertain times. Strongly recommended for everyone who seeks the path to God`s Divine and Infinite and Merciful and Compassionate Love, measured out to us in the same measure which we give to others, in the same measure of which we are capable, as Jesus reminds us in the Gospel of Saint Luke.
It's all about Love.......2004-01-07
Bad cover, great book. Hadewijch, a 13th cent. beguine, is the mystic for all times. She walks us through the methodology of Christ who came for all women. She believes in love, lives for love and demonstrates the ramifications of rejection that necessarily ensue when one is devoted to such a path. She never lets love down. She maps a Zen-like cartography of the suffering that accompanies a life devoted to unconditional love, but gives it minimal value. The benefits of a life lived for others far outweigh the temporary discomfort of ego-amputation. She writes letters, poems in stanzas, visions and poems in couplets. Here is a sample of encouragement from one of her letters:
{p.50} Serve nobly, wish for nothing else, and fear nothing else and let Love freely take care of herself! For Love rewards to the full, even though she often comes late. Let no doubt or disappointment ever turn you away from performing acts of virtue; let no ill success cause you to fear that you yourself will not come to conformity with God. You must not doubt this, and you must not believe in men on earth, saints, or angels, even if tey work wonders (Gal. 1:8); for you were called early, and your heart feels, at least sometimes, that you are chosen, and that God has begun to sustain your soul in abandonment.
