What others thought of the book:

“…It spoke to me on SOOOO many levels – it was as though you were writing about my experience at times. The church thing is SOOOO on point!!! While experiencing a range of emotions, I wondered, pondered, shrieked, gasped and almost wept when I came to the end! And please God…any chance of meeting someone like Charles??” ~ Silverlox Fox, London

“I really love this book. I would wait in anticipation to read it every day. The story was beautiful. Anyone who is stepping into their spiritual self, I highly recommend reading this book. You will have a lot of “Ah Ha” moments, relating what you are going through or have experienced along your journey. I know I will read it again” ~ S. Dominique, USA

“Brilliant writing, Cezanne writes in a very personal way. You’ll easily be able to identify with any of the characters. From the very first chapter this book is thought provoking and inspiring. I’ll strongly recommend getting the CD of poems and spoken word to complement the book. MUST READ!!!!” ~ Brian, London

“I would like to thank you for writing your book Journey of a Sister; when I was reading it it felt as though I was reading my diary, I was like has this women seen my dairy? Lol. I had so many mixed emotions while reading it there was moments of tears laughter and last but for most, Hope . There were several parts that I really identify with firstly your letter to God wow I have asked those same questions. I would just like to thank you once again for your inspiration work, wishing you all the best and looking forward to reading more from you. blessing.” ~ J. Jem, UK

” …Once I got started, it was impossible to put down. It opened my spirit and reminded me of a feeling I experience when reading Iyanla Vanzant…It is an amazing book and I would encourage women who are open to bettering themselves to read this. It is a truly beautiful (and realistic) depiction of a woman’s journey back to herself and to her God. This book provides a foundation which will encourage you to continue learning and growing long after you have turned the last page” ~ Sher, London

“Goddess Cezanne, I only downloaded your book an hour ago. Your transparency–with addressing God’s relationship with man–is unlike anything I’ve ever read, but just about EVERYTHING I ever THOUGHT! THIS is why we write! THIS is part of why we are here! To develop such a degree of openness and authenticity that would ONLY make us realize all the more that you and I…ALL of us—are not ‘far’ from one another. I thank you, and I honor your courage to press through and realize your gifts and the DEPTHS thereof. One Love” ~ Gary B, USA

“I just happened upon this wonderful book by Cezanne and I couldn’t put it down. Please hear me when I say that the story will make you think she is talking about you at some point. It makes you think and want to re-evaluate your life. I’m 53 years old and I had some HMMMMM and AHA moments while reading. Absolutely eye opening and exciting. I LOVE THE WHOLE SET. (e-books) Thank you MS Poetess!!!” (((((((HUGS))))))) !!! ~ S. Wyatt, Nevada

“…I must confess, this is the first time I will be coming across a work challenging a lot of the childhood indoctrination I grew up with, yet written in a pleasant, indisputable, un-put-down-able, and suspense-filled manner. Talk about intellectually-stimulating and pleasurable rolled into one! All my life I’ve been reading novels and motivational/inspirational books, on Black Consciousness, but I must confess that I’ve never come across a single book combining all these genres in a single package… and how could I even forget to mention your wonderful collection of deep poetry? May your river of inspiration never run dry…ASE!” ~ A. Ibiyomi, Nigeria

“The book was absolutely fantastic, I could not put it down. It was far different than I expected, but far greater. The love story was divine and I loved the way that love grew into the true meaning of love and creation rather than a typical explicit book. I found your poetry CD fantastic. I must admit, I would not usually listen to that kind of music, but I found the essence of the words accompanied by the drumming and acoustic really powerful…” Brenda, London

“Absolutely Fantastic!!! This book had me captivated from the first few paragraphs. There was so much that I could relate to, and found myself reading anxiously wondering what was going to happen next. At the same time, it was answering a few questions I had asked myself. I am looking forward to reading the next chapter and the consecutive chapters. An amazing read” ~ Sharn, USA

“I have just finished reading THE book, it is a beautiful love story with plenty of wisdom, and a twist, men you will love it, you will hear your wonderful voices! It is a must read for those who think there is no Black Love in the world. It made me feel loved, warm and fuzzy and my man is just waiting for me to call him to me…Well done Cezanne. I can’t wait to read your next book and I NORMALLY DO NOT DO LOVE STORIES I THINK THEM IF NUFF…However not this one”. ~ Primrose T, London

“SiSTAR Cezanne, that was a read, re-read and recommend and I have only read Year 1 download. This art definitely touches the heart: taboo topics discussed with finesse in an entertaining and helping way. Can’t wait to read the rest of the novel when I pick my signed copy and look forward to meeting you, multi talented artist!” ~ Amanda E, UK

“Wow! What a wonderful journey! Sistar your novel came to me at the right time in my life and I appreciate this journey. I’m an avid reader of non-fiction, and have not been this intrigued by fiction since reading all of the works of one of my favorite author, Toni Morrison. …your novel was a great threshold for the gateway to the next stage of my life. I am truly inspired for a lifetime of more spiritual love!!! ♥ I devoured every word into my soul and anticipated every moment of their love and cultural/spiritual development. You truly have a gift of inspiring us chocolate sistars! A gift that we, daughters of Auset, rarely receive from this world and it is an honor to have found your book and get to know you via facebook…Much love and many blessings to you…There is truly nothing that can compare to Afrikan Love!!!” ♥ ~ Asma M, USA

“I was very surprised by this book’s content; I was hooked after the first chapter and read the whole book in one day. I loved the central character and her personal discovery in finding her meaning to life and confidence and courage to create. This book lead me to read ‘Conversations with God’ – also mentioned in the book, and has led me on my own spiritual journey. I hope the author gets to take this book far and wide – as it deserves to be read. Thank you for having the confidence to write this” ~ Redsky, London

“Dear Sister Cezanne,

Thank you for writing such a beautiful book. you have penned valuable messages within each page. This book informed me, and uplifted my spirit and soul. My sister you write with such transparency that I felt like a fly on the wall. The two weeks it took me to read the book, I thought how lucky I had been to be lead by my ancestors to project shares and saw the book and felt drawn to it.

The book has helped me to go back and get what I had forgotten, or to remember what I have learned about my history and how important it is to honor my ancestors and myself everyday.

I felt so invigorated and wanted to share the knowledge, that I told some of my girlfriends about the book. Not wanting to lose my copy I bought another one. My friend said she felt like felt like an empress after reading your book. Now my daughter of 37ys is reading the copy.

I also purchased one of your painting and would like to see more in the shop.

Thank you, loved the story and YES it should be made into a film.”
