Something short to take my mind off the stressful day. You can tell a man wrote this because bro
Reading these kinds of books is something I both love and detest. This explains why a large number of people, particularly members of minority groups, lack faith in the criminal justice system. Everybody in this book was treated unfairly, and there must be thousands more out there that we are unaware of. Reform is required, and at this time, I do not see any progress toward that goal. Good book nontheless.
Freida nearly got me this time. It took me a little longer than usual to figure out the plot twist. This was fascinating and garnered my attention, so I finished it quickly. The characters were well-developed, and the story was interesting. I believe if you are a fan of hers, you will enjoy it. If you are not already a fan, you should be.
I did enjoy this book. I wanted it to be longer (I am selfish). I just think more could have been done with the story. The characters were could have used more depth for me. I also was looking for several dead girls which did not occur.This is a book that I think is worth reading. I hope it evolves into a series.
This book was everything. Informative, eye-opening, tough, and lastly great. As a POC this was not what I expected. I learned so much and everyone should read this book to gain this free knowledge. This one word can be used in so many ways this book showed me that. Do yourself a favor and read it.
I found “Colored Television” to be a pretty good read. The characters, particularly Lenny and Hampton, evoked such strong emotions in me that I often felt like I wanted to confront them directly! Danzy Senna expertly weaves in historical context about “mulatto” identity, which adds depth to the narrative. It also represents something as old as the hands of time. A POC's contribution to the world is being exploited for profit without recognition. Overall, I believe this book is a must-read for anyone interested in exploring complex themes of race and identity.
More people are going through everything Rocky is. The menopause, death, love, self-analysis, etc. Am I the only one who loves Willa? She is phenomenal. This is a cute short read.
This book left me speechless, forcing me to reflect on the whirlwind of emotions it evoked. From the captivating opening, the story held me in its grip. While the characters may have tested my patience at times, I had to remember that some of them were teens, and their complex evolution was truly captivating. Unlike most stories, the plot's unpredictable twists and turns kept me guessing until the very end, leaving me wanting more. Ms. Freida continues to impress with her masterful storytelling, making this book a must-read for anyone seeking a thrilling and thought-provoking experience.
I had been excited to read this book for some time. When I finally got the chance to read it, I found it to be good, but I felt that the hype surrounding it was greater than the actual content. While I did enjoy the book, I must admit that it didn't fully meet my expectations.
I recently read “A Pair of Wings” by Carole Hopson. It's a story about a woman named Bessie who had heart, gave hope, and never gave up. I think more people should know this story. It's a reminder that the brightest lights burn out the fastest.
This book was full of unexpected twists and turns. The ending caught me completely off guard and was quite emotional. I believe it's a must-read for fans of suspense and thrillers.
I was not sure what to expect from this author because I was a first-time reader. I was pleasantly surprised. This book had me wondering the entire time. Character development is something I enjoy, and she excelled at it as well. This book lives up to its hype and is a must-read.
I recently listened to the audiobook version of this book. I had been looking forward to it. I was left feeling slightly disappointed by the experience, as the story seemed to jump all over the place. The narrator's voice was also quite grating at times, in my opinion. I plan to read the author's other books in the series to see if I started off on the wrong foot. Despite the overall experience, I still believe the book is worth reading.
This is a great informative book. Following the life of the main character through the trials he faced as well as the horror. It opened my eyes to the hatred some can hold and the perseverance that others may have.
Ann is one of my favorite authors. I never knew that she had a personal connection in this manner. This book taught me things I never knew about her and Ted. If you have never read any of her literature this is a great one to begin with.
I enjoyed “Nightwatching,” but I think it could have been better in so many ways. The beginning of the book was setup perfectly,, adding suspense and leaving me wanting more. The entire middle of the book did not add much at all, and the ending had a bit of expense but became easy to know what was next. To me, this book was like having the blueprint for a hotel and building a trailer (no offense).
I ran across this book on my Hoopla app. I decided to give it a shot. I was not disappointed. Ed reminds me of myself in a way. He was socially awkward. He was a good man but people saw him as weird. This story was funny and romantic also. I can not wait to read more of the books Kristen has written.
This book was everything I thought it would be. I do not see how people think she made all this up. She is intelligent and did what she had to do for the county.
Bravo bravo. This is an excellent written piece of art. I love the book from start to finish. Several surprises and masterfully written. After I got past trying to read the names lol I was all in.
I'm not usually one for writing reviews, but this book made want to do so! GoodReads nudged me, and I'm glad it did. From the start, I was hooked. Lucy skipped town under a cloud of suspicion for offing her best friend Savannah. But her granny's cunning bait got her back. Her homecoming? A tornado of old pals, past romances, and a dashing podcaster stirring the crime pot. The real killer was hidden until the eleventh hour, despite my gut feeling (which drives my wife nuts, by the way). The podcast twist? Chef's kiss. If this is a genre you enjoy, you're in for a treat. Almost slipped my mind – post-murder, Lucy's new hobby was hearing voices with a penchant for the macabre, making her doubt her innocence amidst a foggy memory. What a ride!
The coworker is a book with multiple narrators and a generic storyline. However, it is still a good read for those looking for a quick and easy read.
The multiple narrators can be a bit confusing at times, as the story jumps back and forth between different perspectives. However, it also allows the reader to get a better understanding of the motivations of each character.
The storyline is fairly generic, but it is well-written and engaging. The characters are also well-developed and relatable.
Overall it is a good read for those looking for a quick and easy escape. It is not a particularly groundbreaking or thought-provoking book, but it is still enjoyable nonetheless.
