Why read it?

1 author picked Cinnamon Kiss as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Walter Mosely is one of my favorite fiction writers. His Easy Rollins mysteries, of which Cinnamon Kiss is a prime example, describe with great skill the cultural texture of street life among African Americans in Los Angeles.
