Why read it?
1 author picked Lady of the Church as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Lady of the Church is a realistic depiction of a lady who feels as though she’s losing her identity. To many, they only cared about “First Lady,” the title, and not Sabrina, the person. This book made me laugh, sad, happy, and mad at the same time. I even found myself questioning whether or not I was guilty of judging a person based on their stature and not character. Overall, I enjoyed this book and would recommend it.
From Lakisha's list on African American Christian fiction.
