   If you’ve NEVER read a book about black people before -

   That sentences sounds so foreign to me.
   Colleen made an excellent point. Readers wanting to branch out of their comfort zone should look for books that are similar to what they like. Hopefully Susan's new feature What to I Read Next?

   Will help readers find new authors of Color to enjoy.

   that's exactly the problem--we've read so many books, everything we read "fits" or can be placed amongst the other reads...but first impressions count for a lot, so let's hope Susan's guide helps new folks get it right and keep coming back for more...
