The Black Doctor and Other Tales of Terror and Mystery Book

Its a problem when you start to become more excited about picking your next read than you are about finishing your current one. Or when you think you're almost done and your reaction is - Oh. One more story - instead of - Oh! One more story! As much as I wanted to love this book - I didn't. There were three stories that I was eager to see what would happen, but the others I found myself flipping to see how many pages they had left. I'm not sure what the problem was because the use of sarcasm made me laugh throughout. Although, now that I think about it, the girls in each story seemed to have the same personality. I think I'd much rather read a novel from this author because I like the girls that appear in this book, but I think they're one character. If whatever the author writes next has a young black female protagonist, sign me up!
