Chocolate Star (Chocolate Star)

Summary: Blazin page turner.....!!
Review: A friend of mine bought the book to me and told me "girl this book is the bomb", page after page I found myself craving for more chocolate. Each character was given a teaspoon of life and I must admit I am totally impressed with Sheila Copeland's wonderful style of writing. I loved Sean Ross and respected his stand on "no sex before marraige", he had a beautiful relationship with God and his parents. No matter how many woman threw themselves at his feet he was able to go to his mother and find out how he could determine real love from love because of success. Topaz, being a beautiful sista with talent did not appreciate the only people that would ever love her, how can you give up a marraige and a child in a finger snap and not feel guilty about it when you lay your head down to sleep at night, most women crave a good man to come along, she only wanted the fame. And last but not least Gunther, he was a straight trip-he did not appreciate where he came from only cared when he got to the top and looked down on people. I was surprised that he and Topaz were married at all. Thank goodness Sean did not fall into her "things to do list". I will definitly buy part 2 and enjoy the pages that make me want to read it over and over. This book is a must, pick it up you won't be disappointed.

Summary: About Chocolate Star
Review: Chocolate Star was a good and very interesting book. I liked it because it was a very open book and it talked about thongs that happen today in our society. It was funny and very well organized. The Characters I didn't like was Gunther and Topaz because Gunther didn't like his own race, which was African American and Topaz thought she was better than everyone else. I only liked Sean because he reached for his goals no matter what and that's how I like it. I really enjoyed this book and I reccommend this book to everyone who like a lot of drama.

Summary: Great Story
Review: I must say that I read Chocolate Affair before I read Chocolate Star, as I was unaware that Chocolate Affair was a sequel. When I went back and read Chocolate Star, it did clear up some questions I had. But I must say Chocolate Star, where it all started, was fantastic! The story drew me in and I couldn't let go. If you haven't read Chocolate Star, please do so and then follow up with Chocolate Affair. You will not be disappointed, I promise.

Summary: A Rollercoaster Ride Thru Fame, Fortune and Success
Review: I wanted to read Chocolate Star based on some reviews given by Sherry Carter of BET and Brenda Ritchie. I was not disappointed because Chocoalate Star had all the ingredients of a great novel. The characters were really out of this world, a little larger than life - soap opera like - but still very intriguing. The main characters, basketball player Sylk Ross and Topaz the singer were my favorites. Sylk seems like a dream guy - he is successful, loves his family and friends, and remembers to give praise and thanks to the Lord for his blessings. Topaz is self-centered and demeaning at times but I think she learns valuable lessons in the end. That movie producer Gunther is a hard person to like. He is arrogant, forget that he is Black, and is just simply unbelievable at times. If there are any sour points in Chocolate Star it would have to be the overemphasis on designer names, but then again maybe that is someone else's reality. The book was truly a page turner and I believe other readers will find Chocolate Star an enjoyable read as well.

Summary: Great Read
Review: This book was better than I thought it would be. The story will keep you engrossed and it is good from start to finish. Sheila Copeland made a great debut with this and I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a novel that is a page turner. It makes you anxious to read Chocolate Affair immediately because the characters are so colorful and real. The only problem was the main character calling his parents "Mommy" and "Daddy", what was up with that? Also all the name dropping of designer this and that but it kind of has to be there to show the superficial quality in some of the characters. Enjoy.

Review: This book was very enjoyable and entertaining but Sheila Copeland disgusts me with her love of perfection and her overly obsessed mentions of "her" favorite colour. If you can't take this book...don't even begin to read Chocolate Affair. Sheila also tends to make her characters too perfect and almost unrealistic with little flaws if any at all.
