Hey Everyone,

I haven't seen a lot of bestseller lists in a while. What's the hot African-American genre today? Is street lit still the thing? What about Christian fiction? Or could it be erotica?

I know what's not hot among black bestsellers: Memoirs and vampires.

E. according to my slaes it is Erotica (read: Zane), Urban Fiction, and Self help (everything from how to please your man to how to raise Black boys).

With a sprinkling of J. California, Kim Roby, Eric Jerome, when they publish books.
