About this listen

Award-winning author Beverly Jenkins has been named one of the Top Fifty Favorite African-American Writers of the 20th Century by the African American Literature Book Club (AALBC).

In Something Old, Something New, Lily Fontaine and Trent July are finally planning their wedding. But when well-intentioned neighbors - including Bernadine, the town fairy godmother - insist on inflating the intimate gathering into the event of the decade, Lily and Trent start wishing they'd simply eloped.

I absolutely love this book!

I know I have listened to this book at least 45 times. I absolutely love the turmoil with Devin and Zoey. They remind me of my kids and I am fond of both of them.

Thank you!

From Bring On The Blessings, Second Helping, to Something New. They have all been a blessing to me. So much that I had started the process of being a foster mom earlier this year. But life and the unknown got in my head that I stopped. These audibles got me re-engage to continue the process. I noticed the importance of not only opening my mind, heart, and home to becoming a first-time parent. Even before listening to the books. This was my much needed confirmation.

Bringing the pieces together....

Beverly Jenkins knows so well how to weave all the pieces together in a way to capture your heart, mind, and soul. So, Manny i's were dotted and t's crossed in this book. Now I'm so excited to listen to the next novel. Thank you...

Great series...

This is a fun series but there are a few issues with plot holes and mixing up the names of characters (narrator goes back and forth between the names Clay and Cliff often). But overall it's been a pleasure to listen to.

I enjoyed this so much!

I can’t wait to see the movie version of this book! I hope Beverly Jenkins gets an offer to do so! It is for all who love a great story! I love that it’s for all age groups with very little profanity, when it is used, it funny and tastefully written without making one cringe from harsh language! I loved it and can’t wait to listen the next book in the series!
