Summary: Thumbs up
Review: I really loved this book and the information given for ladies who ride has been so useful to me as a new rider such as how to ride in the rain, and how a woman can check out motorcycles before buying one. I'm looking forward to reading Miss Dicks's next book, The Devil's Playground published by Prometheus Books due out this fall. I've already read, They're Going TO Kill My Son and Death Row by this author.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good reading from Connecticut
Review: I thought the book was a wonderful read and it contained some great information on riding as well as the other ladies stories that were included in it. I thought the author included all a lady needs to know about riding when first starting out. I loved it and look forward to reading the next one out.

Summary: Where was the Editor?
Review: If you like reading with a red correction pencil in hand, this is the book for you. Getting through even one chapter is a chore because the reader must navigate through a minefield of botched syntax, misspellings, garbled grammer, unfinished sentences and plain ol' bad writing. If there's an award for the worst writing and editing, this book's a shoe-in! I felt as though the writer rushed to get enough pages typed for a book and didn't bother to even do a cursory check of her work.

The content is not much better. Skip this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Entertaining
Review: This is the worst writing that has been put to print I have run across in my 25 years of reading as an adult. Spelling is terrible. Syntax is worse, continuity of subject matter in a chapter or even a paragraph nonexistent.

I guess that the publisher is a vanity press, because no editor who speaks & reads english would ever let such bad writing get to print.

Avoid it at all costs.
