I just finished reading "I am A Ruby, Not A Sapphire", by Chiquita Tillman. It's was a truly inspiring and powerful story. Chiquita and I have been sister/ friends for a long time. I already knew most of her story before reading the book, so I was curious of the approach by which she would share her journey. By the end, I was left feeling so much respect for her candor, courage and retrospection. I am so proud of her both as a woman and an author. Well done, my sister. - "Rhonda Chapmman"
This was an excellent, remarkable, enlightening, and captivating read. I can appreciate your candor and transparency in your writing. Overall, the fact that you obeyed God and revealed your unabashed truth tells me that you understand the call and purpose that God has for your life. I have been inspired to continue writing my truth, once I finished reading your story. You are definitely not a Sapphire, but a Real RUBY!!! - "Leon Henderson"
