Very interesting read. Overall, really good book. However, I feel like the conclusion was rushed.
DNF
The first four essays, I read were not cohesive. I hate to DNF a book, but I couldn't push through this one
I did not know, what I was getting into, reading this story. To be honest, I was not ready. This story broke my heart, literally, as I know how accurate this story, truly is. However, it's a story that needs to be told.
Great job!
(Listened via Audibles)This book was okay. It had some funny parts, especially about her handicap boyfriend. I felt the author was trying too hard to be funny. I think I would have a different view if I read the book.
Tiffany is true to her self; raunchy, vulgar, and full of life.
She spoke to the nuances of my life.
I loved this memoir!!! Will reread and take my time with her words.
My rating would be 2.5 stars. There were a couple of chapters that put me to sleep, literally. This is your standard modern day romance novel.
Ugh. Some of the characters made my skin crawl, especially Elena (Mrs. Richardson). Signs of great writing that I would have such a visceral response to the characters.
Author Question:
Why were all the adult white characters addressed by their surname but the minority characters were addressed by first name, Mia and Bebe. Just something I noticed, that seemed strange.
Very inspiring. Makes one really think about the mark one leaves on the world. What do people say about you when your not around.
Summation, Michelle Obama is a class act. She had a huge impact on so many people, from the young to the old. What you find in this book is their stories.
Very inspiring read.
Who would have thought? A book that I found on Amazon for .99 cents would have taught me so much.
A Fistful of Honey is a book of parables. We follow Alena Ford on her journey of finding her authentic self and what a journey it is. This book is jam packed with timeless truths. There are many gems in this book that I hope to keep, when I might lose my way on my own journey.
I would recommend this one! I give it 4.5 stars.
Very interesting take on how our negative emotions can manifest - 3.5 not rounding up.
I am not going to rate this book.
I am grappling with this book and it is challenging me. With that in mind, no rating will suffice.
Realistic and raw depiction of the ups and down of a relationship - specifically, marriage.
Excellent!!
4.5 stars
Mary Doria Russell, is an excellent writer. This book was intense, brilliant, complex and the synonyms, go on. At this point, I don't think I can take the intensity of the follow up novel. However, I will read in the future.
OMG!!!!
This book is going down as one of my favorites of all time. Let me process my emotions and I will write a review, later.
I must read everything by Bernice L. McFadden!
Admittedly, I don't have the best sense of humor but there were several times that I burst out laughing. This memoir has given me a different perspective of Kevin Hart. I understand his drive and motivation, now. I was one of those people who felt I was seeing too much of Kevin. But I get it, why work so hard to stop. That the difference between success and mega success. One must keep on going.
I am glad that there was so much transparency in this memoir. I had questions about the demise of his marriage and also about the start of his relationship with his current wife. Kevin left no rock unturned. He provided a good overview of the aspects of his life that made him the person he is, today.
I would recommend this book. Great job, Kevin.
P.S. Big plus for narrating the book, yourself.
A treat to listen to this book on audio. This novel took me back in time, to when I was an adolescent and I felt so misunderstood by everyone, especially my mother.
3.5 stars
