A Woman's Worth : A Novel

Rating:
Summary: EXCELLENT!
Review: I'm not the type of person to read a great novel in 1-3 days. When a book is really well written and thought provoking such as A WOMAN'S WORTH it can take me at least a week to finish reading it. It took me about 10 days to read Tracy Price-Thompson's latest (and maybe her greatest) piece of work. I did not want it to end!! It was just that good! When you read it take your time and take notes!

The story then turns into a poetic romance that is beautiful, inspiring, and has a big turn of events that will make it like a thriller in the end.The way that Chicken accepted all of Abeni and didn't judge her made him a example for a lot of relationships.This is a MUST READ and must nto be looked over. I didn't not give all of the details of Chicken's departures so as nto to give away the book so go and buy it right now!!!

I put everything on this. You will LOVE this book.

Summary: POWERFUL
Review: This book was EXCEPTIONAL. The love levels -- man/woman, parent/child, best friends are all portrayed with incredible purity and unselfishness. Bishop has learned from his male role models how to TRULY love a woman, from the inside out. He's sincere and honest on all levels. Abeni, although scarred from her past, finally finds all the love she needs with Bishop and their daughter, Hunnie. Unfortunately, their differences end up destroying them and saving them at the same time. I laughed, cried, cheered, and really hated to see the book end. Great job. Tracy Thompson manages to always deliver a delightful read that leaves you hungry for her next novel.

Summary: Truly Gifted
Review: Tracy Price Thompson's latest work of genius, A Woman's Worth, is a captivating tale of what heights and lengths one will go to and through to protect their own. From what seems barbaric to one culture and quite normal to another is brilliantly portrayed in this work. I can't go into detail without giving away a tantalizing bit. You cannot truly have a library of great works without adding this novel to sit comfortably by the likes of Alice Walker, Toni Morrison and Maya Angelou.

Tracy Price Thompson is a writer that just seems to get better and apparently challenges herself with each effort.

Summary: Why are there not more reviews written about this book..
Review: Tracy Price-Thompson has written YET another winner !!! The story is excellent and will have you turning the pages to see what is going to happen next. In fact I must issue a warning to be fair. If you have a busy day and want to get things done, this is not the book you want to start reading. I could not put it down. The reviews above give you the storyline and they are right on point. Now all YOU have to do is get this book and you'll be writing or telling someone they need to read this book as well. Keep these wonderful books coming Tracy..!!
