Alicia
Founder & President of Sugar & Spice Book Club
I have to give credit to my older brother Michael for his contribution to my love of reading.
For as long as I could remember he was always sending me books, for my birthday, for the holidays or just because he thought
I would enjoy the author. His choice of authors I believe played a part in me growing up to be the woman I am today.
At 16 yrs. old I was reading the likes Bebe Moore Campbell, Toni Morrison, Galoria Naylor, and of course Alice Walker.
Just to mention a few of my favorites because I really have to many to mention. Bebe Moore Campbell
"Your Blues Ain't Like Mine", Gloria Naylor's " Women of Brewster Place".
Then for a different twist I was introduced to the world of the late great Octavia Butler.
I would have to say being a part of Sugar & Spice as been rewarding & fulfilling.
I love to cook for my family and friends. You will find me at any give time trying a new dish or dessert.
I also believe in taking care of myself and helping others improve on their self-care.
Visit me at Warm Spirit for more information.
My motto: Lean on me, cry on my shoulders, you are my sistah, sisitah 4 sistah I am here for you.
Favorite verses:
"The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want"
"With God all things are possible"
All time prayer , as my grandmother and my pastor ( Rev. Whitsell) taught me to always pray with conviction "Thank You Lord."
My hero: my father Leroy Evans and my sistah Doreather Evans ( Reece)
"Reading takes you on a journey, lets travel together through this wonderful world of reading".
