I AM READING COLLEGE BOY THE URBAN GRIOT BY OMAR TYREE RIGHT NOW

i respect you opinion however I have to disagree because you just don't make sense. I read Flyy Girl & then chased it by For the Love of Money immediately. It has nothing to do w/ when you read the book. It has to do w/ the quality of the work & that book was one of his worst pieces of work. If it's bad then it's bad, ya know. Every writer has his books that aren't all that. Like I didn't like Eric Jerome Dickey's book Between Lovers. However, you just admit it & get over it. By being an avid reader you should be able to recognize the good and the bad. Therefore, it's obvious that w/ the # of people commenting that For the Love of Money is bad. Bleh...it stinks. And I am thru with you.
ANYWAY!!! I kinda liked Diary of a Groupie. Well...I can't say I disliked it. I'll just call it mediocre. But on another note I'm reading a REAL piece of literature I was inspired to read by Oprah's Book Club. Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy is an excellent book.

I read it and it was pretty good, I really liked the story line and the different characters, sometimes it was hard to remember who was who and how they were related in the book but overall it was pretty good. 8)

"Love the one you're with" James Earl Hardy. I've been trying to read it and it's killing me. I can't get past ch. 6 and I was already pissed off at ch. 2.
"Hand-me-down heartbreak" Tajuana "TJ" Butler. It's aiight but the story moves a lil too slow for my liking.
