Books like B-Boy Blues: A Seriously Sexy, Fiercely Funny, Black-on-Black Love Story

I absolutely liked that this was an M/M romance with Black characters written by a Black gay man, especially considering this was published in the 90s. I'd have really liked this in my Nifty, Literotica and Gay Authors reading days. The problem I had reading this, was the constant incoherence, the protagonist's love for B-boys who are described as what would be the "thug" stereotype was fetishistic and the writing could have done without the unnecessary fat jokes that go on and on.A friend of mine once told me certain books are to be enjoyed at a certain period in life and once the period passes, it's too late. And I think that's what happened with this book.
