Book Reviews of Friends and Lovers
Book Review: Do yourself a favor... READ THIS BOOK!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this book for a while but just felt compelled to write a review on it. I have read this book so many times I have lost count. It is a timeless romance that would appeal to black and white, man or woman. This book is just an all around good read. I used to not enjoy reading at all & it was EJD's books that started me into the world of reading. Like a previous reviewer said it is not your ordinary happy ending romance but by the time you get to the end it is well worth the ride. You will laugh, you will cry, you will identify with the characters. If you ever wanted or needed to believe in love, and finding happiness against all odds then this is the book for you. Honestly....JUST DO YOURSELF A FAVOR & READ THIS BOOK!!! Book Review: The best of all
Summary: 5 Stars
Out of all the books I've read by EJD, this one was hands down my favorite. I loved Leonard and Debra together. Shelby and Tyrel....not so much. I thought Shelby was narcissitic and Tyrel was just too good for her. Leonard and Debra were perfect for one another. I've read this book countless times, with the same results...I laugh and I cry each time. If ever you're in doubt about Eric Jerome Dickey's writing skills, pick up this book and you will never have to question them again. Book Review: E. Dickey Did Not Disappoint!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm currently in the process of reading everything Dickey has written, and this time around I opened the pages to Friends and Lovers. And once again, E. Dickey did not disappoint me!!
This story and the characters Leonard and Deborah, along with Tyrel and Shelby are so real. The friendship and love each of them shared with one another was a joy to read. So much in fact, that I found myself sad as hell by the time I hit chapter 25, because I just wasnt ready for it, ya know?
The foursome's story is one of love, loss, misunderstanding, stubborness, friendship, and once again...LOVE! So, if you're a Dickey fan, do yourself a favor and read the book. If you're a newbie to Dickey's work, still do yourself a favor and read the book. He won't disappoint you!!
p.s. Does anybody else love the way EJD continues to use past characters in his new books and builds on them?
Book Review: Fun, great read ;-)
Summary: 5 Stars
Eric Jerome Dickey is one of my favourite authors. This was the second book of his I ever read and I love it. I think his style of writting has changed of late, but this was back when he was writting in the style I love.
You really get to know the characters and understand them. There is a good mix of drama, romance, humour and more drama with them all. I really love the Shelby and Tyrel story line. They are my favourite characters EJD has written. I also love how in this book everyone goes to Roscoes (the best fried chicken spot in LA). You don't necessarily have to read Sister Sister first, but you should at some stage read all of his books because he's such a great writer. These earlier books are much better (in my opinion) than his more recent. I love this.
Book Review: ****best gehetto book ever! ****
Summary: 5 Stars
i give thumbs up and all props for friends n lovers. the characters, attitudes, and the role takin was all bomb. i've even seen the play, which i liked. i take all five stars back and triple it all the way up. even though shelby had attitude she played her role as a true black quuen of dramma. males u betta watch out shelbys given us a new way of checkin 2 c if yall cheatin. i really likes tyrell's role u don't find to many guys who wants to commit with someone. though i didn't like the fact he was seeing a dum married women who tried to have her cake and eat it 2. the down fall of the story was that leonard had to get killed but then again when you think about it that is life. i felt debra's pain so much, my best friend kind who kind of remind me of her. debra really has a good heart but don't be fooled she will go black on u. im already on book #2 cheaters and man we do have another black queen in fact quite a few in cheaters. i can't wait to get to milk in my coffe and liar's game. dramma is just around the cornor.
