"Love is blind, and it will take over your mindWhat you think is love, is truly notYou need to elevate and find," -Eve I starred at myself in the mirror, serenading the room as I listened to Eve on the radio. I couldn't help but feel ashamed as I bobbed my head to the beat and sang along to the lyrics as I placed a bag of ice gently over My blackened eye. How could I be this woman? This woman of substance and a woman of voice to help others, but here I was being beaten. Sometimes love is blind and it for sure took over my mind...I just prayed that I would find the courage to leave and be the woman I was destined to be.

New Orleans's idiosyncrasies have been embraced by the world; Patty Friedmann gives us a tender, hilarious portrait of them in her new novel Side Effects. Set in N.O. Drugstore where hardscrabble black Pigeontown meets stuffy white Tulane, Side Effects is peopled with the true New Orleans oddballs who scuffle between the Seasonal Specials and Depends aisles — all in full view of the pharmacy staff. Proudly plump blonde Luciana Jambon, dreadlocked and neatly compulsive Lennon Israel, and up–from–the–'hood Vendetta Greene have their own dramas of romance and friendship. A wacky and suspenseful story of family conflict and a death under suspicious circumstances, Side Effects serves most as a comical reminder that New Orleans loves nothing more than to laugh at itself.
