Special Guest: Carleen Brice’s debut novel, Orange Mint and Honey, was an Essence “Recommended Read” and a Target “Bookmarked Breakout Book.”  For this book, she won the 2009 First Novelist Award from the Black Caucus of the American Library Association and the 2008 Break Out Author Award at the African American Literary Awards Show. Orange Mint and Honey was made into the movie "Sins of the Mother" on the Lifetime Movie Network. http://www.mylifetime.com/movies/sins-of-the-mother.

Her second novel, Children of the Waters (One World/Ballantine) is a book about race, love and family. Booklist Online called it “a compelling read, difficult to put down.” Essence says, “Brice has a new hit.” You can visit her online at http://www.carleenbrice.com.
