My Baby's Father

My Baby's Father is an extremely good book. I could not put it down. I read the book in four days. It gives a perspective of male-female relationships on a typical college campus. It gets into the various games and rituals that male and females experience during early adulthood. I recommend this book to the reader who would like to experience relationships in college. The book is an experience that you will treasure and truly savor for your entire life.

A New Perspective

Buford allows you to enter into the minds of educated young African American males as they learn and grow throughout their four years of college. I enjoyed this book because it gives you a different perspective. I'm used to reading books from a woman's viewpoint but this one is a change from the norm. Read this to find out a variety of male viewpoints on life, love, and happiness.

4 years of college in 351 pages

I am not a book devourer; however, I read My Baby's Father in 4 days. I simply could not put it down. That's probably because I knew so many of the characters in the book. Not personally, but they were all too familiar reminders of my college years. G. Dan Buford should be praised for his vivid portrayal of collegiate life and the ever so delicate balance of male-male and male-female relationships. Especially at a time when so many students are just trying to find themselves. Two thumbs up!!!!
