Summary: Still Waiting for the Headliner!!!!
Review: This book kept me reading for "that big moment" that never came. I finished the book feeling like I just wasted several days of my time. It is not at all what I expected. There was no excitement but the author kept making it seem like she was getting to the apex but never developed the story that far. This was merely a collection of short stories that really had no point. Better luck next time.

Summary: SEEING RED IN CHICAGO
Review: I could not finish this book, A FIRST!!! I read the first half and paged through the rest to see if it improved, it did not. There is really no plot just scenarios created so the characters can convey the authors messages. Mrs. Welch Tyson has embraced every negative sterotype about an array of different ethic groups. * We have mean angry Black Women (the real problem is all of these characters are insane) *Dominating and angry Jewish Women(the Jewish men are painted as loving and caring and lucky to have escaped these women). *Man-Hating Lesbians *Black men who are afraid to Commit. *Gay Men who deceive their straight female lovers (this is by no means a complete list of of the insults). The only sane black women is Desiree(sanity provided by her loving, successful and faithful Jewish Husband) as a matter of fact most of the characters find happiness when they make the decision to find lovers and mates of a different ethic group, There is a very real push to get Black Women to explore other options. SO WE TOO CAN BE HAPPY! RIGHT

Summary: Okay but could be better!!!
Review: I read an awful lot of books in my spare time. I felt as though this book was a waste of my time overall. I'm sure with more practice that Mrs. Welch-Tyson will improve. It generally takes me 3 days to read a 300-page novel, this was one was reasonably short and it took me a week. The characters lacked a lot of something,I just can't figure out what that something is yet. Good luck next time.

Summary: hunh????????
Review: I am an avid reader, often buying books I feel will be worth it in hardback..Well this book was definitely not worth it. I finished it because whenever I read I feel the need to know what happened to the characters, I guess I get involved with their lives. Well Miss Welch did give me that satisfaction but it seems that in the end she said "oh my it's too long", and therefore skipped to the ending without popular develpment. Oh well I guess next time her book will have to be a paperback!!!

Summary: Very interesting, compelling, made me hunger for more!
Review: I thought the book was great. I could really relate to most of the women portrayed in the book, either myself, a friend, or relative at some point in our lives. At first when I read it was the story about 6 women, I figured I might get lost or confused. But , this talented author made it easy and interesting for me to keep up with everyone single one of them. I read some of the negative reviews given, and I have to ask, "What book were they reading?" I have to say to Mrs. Delorys Welch-Tyson," Good Job" homegirl and keep up the good work, I am awaiting your next piece of work!

Summary: JUMBLED
Review: I heard how great this book was. A friend passed it on to me. How happy I am I DID NOT spent the money on it. Snap One, Snap Two etc, reminds me of going to the bakery, buying a box cookies, but only to discover they were all broken and different flavors. It is obvious the writer believes she is the next great female author, as the she flung BIG words throughout the book. Is she REALLY trying to write a book or vent about HER life.

Summary: Disappointing!
Review: I have the same opinion voiced by so many others here. This book was a big disappointment for me. I was so excited about reading it too! I just didn't get the point.

Summary: hated it
Review: The writer has a way to go. LONG way. Since this new upswing in AA contemporary fiction has come about, it seems like there is no standard for what's acceptable. This novel reflects that. Not all writers are great storytellers. This book was all smoke and mirrors. I pity the tree that gave its life in vain. And yes, I did notice all the (bogus) 4 star rating that came in Nov/Dec. (see below) Not only was the style of the reviewers writing the same, but did s/he have to use all caps each time? I hope that wasn't the author giving bogus 4 stars. That would truly be pathetic.

Summary: Okay, but!!!!
Review: This book was okay and just okay. It wasn't a can't put it down book, I was kind of disappointed. Generally I read the customer reviews but this time I did'nt. The ending was funny. I got kick out of Althea having to rent a date and finding out that he was looking for the same type of man she was. I didn't like the jumping around from character to character and the only characters that really had an ending were Althea and Desiree. Maybe I missed it, I really don't know what the bottom line was.

Summary: Stupid. Just silly
Review: I read a NUMBER of reviews on Amazon before I would ever consider buying a book. But if you scroll down. . . do you notice a TREND IN THE REVIEWS ON DECEMBER 16th AND 17th? I mean SOME OF THESE REVIEWS ARE NOT LIKE THE OTHER. You be the Judge while I find something else to read.
