This is what I really needed to read right now. It was funny and at times heartbreaking. Terry McMillan does such an awesome job of writing strong black women characters. Her latest follows 68 year old Loretha Curry. Loretha is not feeling so content with her life. Her daughter (Jalecia) and sister ...
I Picked Up This Book Because: The author The Characters: Georgia Young: Wanda, Violet, Estelle, Frankie, Stan The Story: This wasn’t a terrible book but the focus and insistence that Georgia's friends and family put on her being single and that she HAD TO find a man to make her life happy and co...
I appreciate a romance that is acerbically funny rather than cloying and this one gets bonus points for a main character and her romantic interests who are middle aged and dealing with all the life issues that go with it. The characters, their relationships, and the events felt real and not too impr...
Please note that I gave this book 4.5 stars, but rounded it up to 5 stars on Goodreads.I liked this one much better than "Getting to Happy". I was so disappointed because that whole book felt like a shallow sequel to some truly memorable characters. In her latest, McMillan does what she does best. S...

This is the tale of four black women who are friends in early 1990s Phoenix, Arizona. I can't say I found any of the woman all that likable; they're so whiny and man-hungry. We first meet Savannah, never married and without children at thirty-six. She's affluent, doing well in her career in public r...
Shortie review here, since I am all kinds of late finally reading this book but OH EM GEE IT WAS GOOD! I don't know why, but I haven't made a big habit out of reading Terry McMillan.
