Action, suspense thrillers; stories with complicated plot lines and crazy twists. I strongly, strongly DESPISE stupid comedy. Love anything with Audrey Hepburn or Shirley Temple.
Don't watch it much. The original CSI is always a good choice...The Closer is good. Some other shows here and there. Oh, I really like Project Runway and Top Model, too.
Who has time to read? No, really, J. California Cooper, Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, Bebe Moore Campbell, E.Lynn Harris. My favorite book is The Color Purple by the talented Ms. Alice Walker.
Good question...let me think on that a bit...Every slave that was every sold, bought, beaten, hanged, lynched, raped, bastardized and branded... Every man, woman and child that fought and/or died for equality... Every woman that has ever collected herself and/or her children and walked away from an abusive situation...every woman or child that is a survivor of rape or sexual abuse...and every woman that knows that SHE is the most precious jewel on the face of the planet just because she IS.
