Publisher Description
Carl Weber is a New York Times best-selling author who's made a name for himself with wildly entertaining works marked by his trademark wit and storytelling panache. In The Choir Director, Bishop T.K. Wilson is banking on dynamic new choir director Anthony Mackie to reverse the failing congregation's fortunes. But while Anthony's got more than enough chops to raise a heavenly chorus, he's also got a weakness for the ladies that could make the Devil himself stand up and take notice.

"Just when you think First Jamaica Ministries is on the come back trial, more drama and scandal is brought out. Here's yet another page turner. We are reintroduced to a few characters. Secrets, lies and deceit line these pages. But we must remember, anything done in the dark always come to the light."
— Lashanda (4 out of 5 stars)
Quotes
-
“Drama in the church is a popular theme, but there’s no déjà vu when the author is Weber. Readers get an unobstructed view of the secrets, fears, elation, and sexual energy of the characters through first-person point of view and electrifying dialogue. The Choir Director is so magnetic, it draws readers into the plot and holds them captive until the last word. This is a masterfully written gem.”
— RT Book Reviews (4½ stars) -
“Weber successfully explores the multiple megaproblems challenging this church family and scores again with a lively mix of church politics and bedroom follies.”
— Publishers Weekly -
“Faith, hope, and fornication constitute the theme of this lusty tale as Weber’s sex-driven choir director meets the hormonally active ladies of the First Jamaican Church.”

— Yvette, 1/22/2014 -
" The only reason this does not get a 1 star is because I DID not finish the book. However that is also the reason why the rating IS so low. The book was so bad, I just WOULD not devote more time to it, after the second or third chapter. "
— L.D., 1/17/2014 -
" So, far so good. Page 40-Chapter 5. "

" A bit over the top with all of the drama. Quick & easy read. "
— Brandi, 12/15/2013 -
" There is one word I can use to describe this work: ridiculous. Completely ridiculous. A total waste of time. It was only half way about a choir director, as implied by the title. There wasn't a single stable character in the entire work. Just...a waste of time. I would not recommend this. "
— Gertrude, 12/12/2013 -
