Customer Reviews

A for sure page turner!

Through the eyes of Terrence Mitchell, Omar did a great job of not only giving us a glismp of the world of modeling through the male eye, he also produce a great book from the male prospective. Having been disappointed by him in the past, I was leary of picking up another one of his books. However, by the end of the first page, I was glad I did. I could not put this book down. Terrence Mitchell not only shows us how it is in front of the camera, he's not shy about his life behind the camera either. He takes us through his relationship with his family, his sexually life, as well as his business affairs. I recommend you get this book today. I loved it.

Good Read

I was disappointed to read the other reviews but everyone has their own opinion. I feel that this book was very up to date with the current dating world. I am a successful single 24 year old woman living in the Atlanta area (like the character Terence) and that is just the way things are now. The character reminded me of a lot of guys I have met and tried to avoid. If you are not in the dating world then you won't understand this book. I feel this is a great book for intelligent young single black woman who want to know how guys think about you from your first impressions to the way you carry yourself and the things you say. Not saying that all men are the same but they are all very similiar especially the way they feel about women. It gave me alot of tips about what to say and do around a successful single black man. Some people are a little too uptight but what did you expect from a book from Omar Tyree? You might learn a few tricks to use with your partner to tell you the truth.

Very Hot Book......

I really enjoyed this book and I think Tyree is up to his old and very successful tricks of weaving a powerful tale. I would highly suggest this book to others AND I would suggest a new author as well. A Black College Nightmare (link below) takes the same type of story with just as much heat! A Black College Nightmare (The Black College Lamentations Series)

Great book

It makes u want to keep reading it I read 400+ pages in a wkend its a good summer laid back book. recommend for omar tyree lovers its suspensful funny and a good persepctive on men who get lots of ladies.

This is What They Want

Omar drops from his normal social commentary to write a steaming book about relationships from the male perspective. Today, most romance books are written in the female voice. Omar cuts against the grain and writes one from the male perspective. Ladies if you want to understand the psychology of many men out here, you should pick up this book. While you may disagree with much of what he says, it is from the male perspective.
