Comment by Tamika

Great, great, great book. Couldn’t put it down and I cannot wait for Shameless Hoodwives. I’ve recommended the book to all the girls. Great JOB!!!

FROM MINK AND DIAMOND: Awww. Thanks Ashley. We hope you and the girls enjoy the new book. Let us know.

Comment by ASHLEY

hi meesha and diamond your book was wonderful I love it and some of it was very sad but great i was just wonder is this based on a real story of real people that you Va`Shonda Carter 17 years old.

FROM MINK & DIAMOND: Hi Va’shonda. Yes, some parts of the book were sad. Its probaly those parts that will touch me the most. Thankfully, these particular ladies aren’t real. Unfortunately there are real people out there who lives mirror these stories. Hopefully, people–particularly young people such as yourself–will avoid the mistakes these ladies made. Stay blessed.

Comment by corny21

Hi,Meesha and Diamond,I just wanted u ladies to know that i could not put that book down,It is definetly a recommendation!!!.The only thing i have a problem with is……Can u please push an earlier date for the next book?

FROM MINK & DIAMOND: LOL. Well by now its out but we don’t have the control that a slf-publised authors has, so the release date is entirely up to the publisher. Let us know what you think when you get it.

Comment by Keisha

I really enjoyed the book. I also noticed that you put some actual events in the book. It was an eye-opener. I started to pass my book on but I’m saving it to add to the collection you all will have to follow.I cannot wait until Shameless comes out. Thanks a bunch.

FROM MINK & DIAMOND: Thanks, Denita. Let us know what you think of Shameless.

Comment by Denita Johnson

I just finished reading “Desperate Hoodwives,” and I loved it. I didn’t not expect anything to turn out the way it did. Although I would like to know if Devani’s baby was Tyrik’s or Junior’s. Can’t wait for the next book!

FROM MINK AND DIAMOND: Hmmmmm. Tyrik or Junior? Who do you think it is?

I just read this book about a week ago and I’ve told EVERYBODY I know to take the time to enjoy this FABULOUS urban read. I’m always in search of a tale that can hold my interest as well as put you in touch with the characters,and this book went above and beyond. I laughed,cried,and shook my head all the way through. I can’t wait til the saga continues! Much love and praise ladies,keep up the great work.

FROM MINK AND DIAMOND: Thank you, Rikkhyia. We are really proud that we brought the drama and the entertain ment but we also put work into developing the characters, creating this fictional world of Bentley Manor, and evoking real emotions from the readers.

Comment by candi

Hey Meesha and De’Nesha, I been had your book Desperate Hoodwives a while now and I pulled it out yesterday and I cant believe I stayed up all night reading it. I’m done and Giiiiiirl(s)…. this book is off the chain. My favorite author is Eric Jerome Dickey, and I’m often afraid to read from other authors, but you guys have definitely changed my mind on that. You guys are now my new favs, and I can’t wait until Shameless Hoodwives comes out. Keep up the good work, and god bless.

FROM MINK AND DIAMOND: Thank Shantezzie. EJD? That’s a big compliment. Thanks a lot.

Comment by Shantezzie

Comment by Jonaya

Hi there ladies. I just started reading your book and so far it is good. I like it because I am from the projects myself and you all hit some points that took me back. I am a new author, my first book titled I Would Never is hitting the book store July 14th. I am proud of you two and I wish you the best of luck.

To: Meesha&De’Nesha,
“Desperate Hoodwives”
I really enjoyed this novel. It was so full of ebullient charaters and storyline. I look forward to read next sequel when it’s comes out. Also, Niobia I’ve read two others of your novels-” You Never Know”-ok to me and ” Can”t Get Next To You” -I loved this novel -Yes, it is a slow process of reading more of your novels.Hopefully, you’ll be able to respond back to his e-mail. I also had difficulty getting to your regular website.
good luck,

FROM MINK AND DIAMOND: Hi Sheila. Thanks for the support of DH. My website is ww.niobiabryant.com and my email is niobia_bryant @yahoo.com. You’ll find a printable book list on the sight. Thanks for the luv. Best Meesha.

Comment by Melissa

Hi Melissa,
Thanks so much for stopping by the site. Don’t forget we both write seperately under our names (Niobia Bryant aka Meesha Mink and De’nesha Diamong aka Adrianne Byrd). In particular Niobia has two mainstream books out set in Newark, New Jersey: Live and Learn & Show and Tell.

Thanks from both of us for your support.

Best,
Mink and Diamond

Comment by Mink & Diamond

Hello Ladies. I really loved both hood books,they were soooo entertaining. I would really love to know more about Junior and why he was the way he was. Also, I think that you guys should do a book about where the ladies are now…at least the ones who survived. Shameless was crazy but Desperate was my favorite….I can not WAIT for the next one…keep ‘em coming!

Comment by Dawnita

Hi Dawnita,

Thanks so much for your support. Girl, go with your gut on Junior–he was a straight mess. LOL. Bentley Manor has taken on a life of its own and we knwo readers want to catch up with original ladies. Look for a little sneak peak at some in THE HOOD LIFE.

Best,
M & D

Comment by Mink & Diamond

The book was soooo realistic, my gosh I felt like I stayed in Bentley Manor.

Comment by Heather

Hi Heather,

Bentley Manor is a character all by itsef in these books. It’s just as important as the characters, so I’m glad you enjoyed it.

I think one of the main compliments we get is that you can say what you want about what we write, you can not deny the books are well-written. For us that’s just as important as bringing the drama.

Thanks for your support,
Mink & Diamond

Comment by Shelia

Hi Sheila,
Thank you! We’re glad you enjoyed it. THE HOOD LIFE drops January 2009 and this time it’s the men of Bentley Manor who have stories to tell.
