Great book, easy to get into

This is great book, very entertaining. I didn't even know I was angry (ha,ha). I easily indentified with the women who wrote it. Very enjoyable reading. Males don't be scared to pick up a copy: read it and then pass it on to the angry women in your life.

An entertaining book!

Indeed the book is a quick read, but I found it entertaining. You really don't have to be angry to read ABW, and men will love this book too. Cute, and different.

Anger Management.

THE ANGRY BLACK WOMAN'S GUIDE TO LIFE is an outrageously funny, no holds barred book that takes you deep into the mindset of ABW's (angry black women) everywhere. Not your typical "how-to book", this guide is chock-full of questionnaires, quizzes and scenarios (including what and what not to do). Got a trifling man? Bad children? If so, then you definitely need to read this book. It not only deals with those issues, but it also shows you how to effectively deal with racists, situations in the workplace, those "ghetto fabulous" people that we oftentimes hate to claim as a part of our race, and any other situation that you can think of where finger-popping, neck-swiveling, talk to the hand gestures, and instant attitude would be the ABW's first reaction. A mere 160 pages, THE ANGRY BLACK WOMAN'S GUIDE TO LIFE is short and to the point. I often found myself laughing out loud and nodding my head in agreement with everything, as will most other women who read this. I also realized that I may be in denial about it, but I am an angry black woman, and there is nothing wrong with a little righteous anger. This was unequivocally the best "how-to" book I have ever read. Reviewed by Renee Williamsof The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers
