She That Findeth by Kim Brooks



A reader of various types of genres; I’ve read my share of “spiritual reads.” Because the sole purpose of this classification in general is to elevate your mind body and soul, my mood after the completion of one is usually one of somberness.  That was until I read SheThat Findeth by Kim Brooks.

Shenita Love, a 35 year old single native of Detroit and devoted church woman is tired of her relationship status.  In-fact, Love is so fed up with being single, that she takes the advice of friend “Male Diva” Rashawn, who pumps her up to become more aggressive on her conquest to find her soul mate.  Enthused by the words provided by her male bestie, she decides to pump her dating game up to full speed. Many comical and very humorous moments are exposed through Shenita’s dating encounters.  I found myself laughing a lot throughout the entire novel and asking myself, “Where on earth did these men come from?”

Love’s friends and “church sisters” personal struggles with being single also add another dimension to this novel making it definitely the “spiritual read” to read.    What I love the most about Brook’s latest novel is the pure realism behind it all.   Despite of this book being classified as a fictional read, it possesses many characteristics of nonfictional read. Many lessons are taught throughout the entirety of this book. I am pleased to say that this book is one heck of a read.
