Yeah, For the love of money wasnt that hot. But every since I've read Zane, other writers have become like blah to me. I would say she is my fav. author right now.

Omar Tyree was in Cleveland and read to us an excerpt of Boss Lady...it sounds like it's gonna be decent...but u GOTTA read the second book or else u wont understand how she got where she is.

Default BOGUS

THE LAST BOOK I READ OF OMAR TYREES WAS DIARY OF A GROUPIE AND IT WAS BOGUS. I AGREE I THINK MAYBE HE IS LOOSEN HIS TOUCH, CUS THUS FAR FLY GIRL IS THE BEST BOOK IVE READ THAT HE HAS WRITTEN.

yea my sister thinks that a ghostwriter actually wrote Flyy Girl because it was his only good book, don't get me wrong I liked Sweet St. Louis, Single Mom, and Just Say No but compared to Flyy Girl, those other books are mediocre.

I have to agree. I mean, I couldn't even get past chapter one of For the Love of Money at all. The pace was too slow for my liking, but I figure maybe I'll try to read it again...who knows? I think he should've stopped at the first book.
dang I thought I was the only person who thought it sucked. I loved Flyy Girl. It was the first book like that that I had ever read. I read it when I was like 15 and when me and my boyfriend started dating, for my 16th birthday he bought me For the Love of Money cause I was like I wanna read it and when I got it I read it and it was crappy! I was so shocked. I cant even get to the 2nd chapter. If yall wanna read a good book, read The Coldest Winter Ever. That book is SICK!
