Rating:  - I'm thrilled that the wind blew in my direction; this is fantastic storytelling
I read the prequel to this book, "Not a Day Goes By." I enjoyed that book and wanted a second dose of the author by the name of E. Lynn Harris. Thankfully, I read this sequel, "Any Way the Wind Blows", and was even more satisfied with his creative writing. Harris's style of writing recalls the format of a soap opera because they both jump from scene to scene. In soap operas, this annoys me greatly, but with in his literature, it doesn't bother me at all, even when the best parts are intercepted by other scenes.
Yancey and Basil were once engaged. On the day of their wedding, they called it off because Yancey and her malicious mother, Ava, discovered that Basil was leading a double life; they found out he was bisexual. Basil was once loving and attentive to Yancey, but in both the prequel and sequel of this story the reader finds that he can be a cold-hearted player to men and women alike. Basil does not want anyone to know that he is attracted to me, however, in "Any Way the Wind Blows", many will finally be enlightened. Yancey is a successful recording artist. Her records climb the chart throughout the book. Ironically, her first single, "Any Way the Wind Blows" is about a man who is bisexual. Many of the characters ask Yancey and Basil if this song is about their relationship, and for a long time, they are tight-lipped about it, but, Basil, what you do in the dark will come to the light.
This story concludes very realistically and I appreciate Harris for that. Too often in literature, a story will have an unbelievable ending, but the end of this story is not tied in a bow by no means. Some of the characters have better fate than others, but the end is one you will want to know. I loved this book so needless to say it is highly recommended!
Rating: - great stuff
This is one of my favorite books amongst all E Lynn Harris's book. It is funny, sexy, smart and will have you reading to the end once you open the book. Of all the xters though, my favorite was, or should I say Yancey. That girl is fierce and a big b@#*^@ one minute, and a complete softy another minute, and believe me when I say there are two in every 10 women out there today, now lets not talk about Basil, another piece of work in the story lol. It is a must read.
Rating:  - Masterful storyteller

Rating: - Who says sequels suck?
E. Lynn Harris does it again, but then again, doesn't he always? Yeah, well this book was my second by him. Although it wasn't as good as Not A Day Goes By, it was a very entertaining story full of drama, lies, deceit, and mystery, and a good follow up to Not A Day Goes By. I do feel that one aspect of the story that was incomplete, a conflict that hadn't been resolved; otherwise this book is a very good read. Did I mention that it's full of scandal? I would recommend this book to everyone reading this review!
