review 1: Absolutely loved this book. Read this book for the first time five years ago, loved it then and love it still. I love how Mr. Marlon McCaulsky developed the characters throughout the book so that if felt like you were there with them at every up and every down. This book does an excellent job showing that no matter what walk of life you come from, there's somebody for everybody, happiness is possible, fast money isn't always good money and sometimes you have to hit rock bottom before you realize that a change is necessary.
review 2: Can you turn a hoe in to a housewife???This book was a pleasure for me to read. I was not sure if I could really care for a book based on a stripper. I love the fact it’s written in first person, as I am a fan of first person nove... morels. I also love the fact that each chapter was written in first person by a different character. This gave me a chance to get into each character’s head. We meet Janelle Mo’Nigue Taylor the hottest stripper to hit the Pink Palace. It’s not her dream job but it pays the bills and then some. Mo’Nigue invasions something else but cant get out. She looks at men as tricks that is until she meets Tommy Holloway a hustler working his was up the ranks. Both having different thoughts about each other but their budding love affair is one to be admired. As time goes on Mo’Nigue starts to feel he not giving his all and fears he holding something back. As she pries deeper along wondering how she could be falling for a trick and wondering why Tommy is trying to turn a hoe into a housewife. This makes for some interesting reading and some different turn of events. You will have to read to see what I am talking about. You always hear if this was a movie who would be the main characters I have to say this put me in mind of the players ball movie. While this story is TOTALLY different then the movie those playing in the movie came to mind. For Tommy I thought of Omar Epps for those who read the book should have idea of where I am going with this. I look forward to reading more from Mr. McCaulsky as he held my attention and had me wanting to read more. I just had to get to this end of the book and see how this was gonna turn out and I was not disappointed. I also like the fact that I used to live in Atlanta, GA so I was familiar with the places and street names. SiStar TeaARC Book Club Inc.5 star rating less
