Summary: What you do in the dark will soon come to light.
Review: This book takes you on a emotonal roller coaster. It has it's highs and lows. It's not the best dickey book I have read, though I did enjoy it towards the end. The characters are very realistic, especially the situation with Vincent, his ex-wife and child. I was happy that he still loved his child even though he was no longer married to the childs mother. A lot of men divorce the children also. I didn't care for Dana because she was very insecure and seem to take her jeolousy of Vincent love for his daughter out on a picture, the only memory he had. I thought this was very typical. I'm also glad he didn't leave me hanging with the situation with Naiomi and the one night stand. That goes to show "What you do in the dark will soon come to light", even if it's nine years later. Over-all I enjoyed the book and can't wait for the next one to be released. I am still Dickey's #1 fan.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not As Good As His Others
Review: I have been a huge fan of Eric Jerome Dickey since his first books came out and I have bought, read, and enjoyed every single one of his books, but Liar's Game just did not have that magic that his other books had. I liked Liar's Game and I didn't have a hard time getting into the story, but the title made me think that there was going to be more to the story pertaining to lying to your lover. The other thing that I noticed was sorely missing was Eric Jerome Dickey's brilliant sense of humor. When I read Cheaters, I was literally laughing until it hurt. When I read Liar's Game, I smiled a few times, chuckled maybe once or twice, but this book did not strike me as being all that funny. If Eric was trying to write a more serious book, he accomplished that but if he was thinking that this book was as funny or funnier than Cheaters, he's sadly mistaken. With all of that said, I did enjoy this book and I still would recommend it to be read, but I would recommend reading his other books, especially Cheaters, first. Nevertheless, like a lot of the other reviewers, I'm a lifetime fan of Eric and I just hope that his next book is back up to the standard that Cheaters set.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Game of Emotions
Review: This is the second Dickey novel that I have read and it was not as good as the first. I got tired of the back and forth lies and games played by the key characters. There was no reality to the novel as far as I was concerned. I was looking for an adult fiction novel. Dickey is a great author, it is just not prevelent in this novel.

If you are interested in the lives of cheating rap producers,under-age illiterate rappers, obnoxious men and women of low self esteem, this book is for you. Otherwise pick another Dickey novel!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Liar's Game
Review: Well, he has done it again. Liar's Game is another exceptionally, well written book by one of my favorite authors, Eric Jerome Dickey. It follows the boy meet girl story line as most of his other novels. Of course, it is dashed with both the humor of Mr. Dickey's own personal style and realistic scenarios between both friends and lovers (sound familiar?). This is a must read. If you've read anything by Mr. Dickey, you know what to expect...leave the evening open, send the children to the baby sitter's house etc. because you will not be able to put the book down until it is finished. Each novel is speckled with characters that we have met before. Each novel is also as rich and deep as the previous.

Without giving a summary of the novel, I will simply say that you must read this one. It was a joy to read and allows a great escape from your immediate surroundings. It also made you think about and evaluate your own relationships with friends, family and partners.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Liar's game
Review: This was my seccond Eric j. Dickey book It was good but it couldn't top my favorite cheaters, In the beginning it starts off a little slow but overall it's not bad it's a good read. And the end was a shocker!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Of All Times
Review: Eric Jerome Dickey really showed us that not telling the truth is a game. The main characters Dana and Vince had to play the game to keep their relationship in tact and to cover up the not so perfect side of them. The way he wrote was very informative and led you into every chapter, because you knew exactly where the character was coming from. Not only was he very descriptive but every chapter was a different viewpoint from another character. It was different and I like it. The summary explained the book to be all right but when you read it it's excellent!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THIS BOOK IS THE BOMB!!!
Review: All I can say is that EJD is a GREAT AUTHOR. I started reading his books because one of my friends told me to read "Cheaters" (whewwwww, that's another story); but anyways, that was the first one I read, and ever since, I've been hooked...I'll tell you, once you read at least ONE of his books, you'll be HOOKED!! Highly recommended!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Is truly what it is
Review: A good story of drama but to many dull points in the book. But the drama made-up for it.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: OK
Review: an Ok read not my favorite but worth the money I spent on it

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Relationships are a trip
Review: Mr.Dickey is one of my favorite authors. If you read one of his books then you must read them all. All are page turners. This book is about dating and about some of the games that seem to go along with it. Vince meets and starts dating a nice woman but although he really is a good man he lies to her about having a child. When the mother comes back to town baby momma drama begins. This book is serious at times but has some comedy.
