Good Book

I thought this book was good and so did two of my neighbors. We enjoy Omar's style of writing and the inspirational messages that he sends. It's a shame to see people trying to hurt a popular authors work because of hate. I hope this doesn't stop him from continuing to bless us with his work. I've read enough books filled with filth and disrespect to our women, men and children. We seem to love those types of books. (sounds like self hate) I think Omar gives our young ladies hope and show them they can succeed in life. Keep up the good work Omar. I have enjoyed each of your books and will continue to support you. thanks

PREDICTION: FROM "FLYY GIRL TO BOSS LADY" IS GOING TO THE BIG SCREEN!

I hate to say this, but as a true-to-life psychoanalytic therapist I must say that one reviewer is a man posed a woman on here who is obviously a fresh out the batch author competitor. It is so obvious and I can't guess which author. I am getting use to these kind of posts. Secondly, there may be some old heads here who have grown out of Omar Tyree's writing style which draws the 15 year olds to 21 year olds. Sometimes readers reach a cap limit on what kind of music and books they can still appreciate. However, every young girl aspires to be that Boss Lady. I address them at workshops all the time. Thirdly, some reviews seem like personal attacks or character assasinations from folks who have met Omar Tyree. Nevertheless, here is my honest review and minus my own biases, judgement and personal preferences.READERS SAY BOSS LADY BY OMAR TYREE HAS WHAT IT TAKES FOR THE BIG SCREEN BASED ON MY BOOK WAVE DROPPIN' POLLS.

Something Different

I thought the book was refreshing. It was great to re-visit Tracy during her later years battling between love, career and keeping it real.
