I loved Eric and Sookie and the way they ended was even worse. The entire story was a bit ridiculous and convoluted.
I think she just needed to wrap it up and kind of threw this book together. This serious and it's fans deserved more than that.(less)

I am very serious about books I give 5 stars to and this book deserved it. I first heard about Tracy McMillan after my coworker saw her on TV and we then looked up her article for Huff Post (same title of the book) and I immediately despised her. I found the article to be annoying and when I shared it on Twitter and found the men all agreed, I was irate. Still, I figured I should read the book before actually deciding if this woman's womanhood card should be revoked and had big plans to blog about how stupid and ridiculous her book was.
BOY.WAS.I.WRONG. This book was witty, clever, amusing, loving, authentic, and so many other wonderful things. There was no pointing fingers but at the same time no sugarcoating of things. It was simply no nonsense like your sister or bff would tell you. I found it to be an easy read and kept finding quotes and things that I wanted to write down to take with me. I think the article actually did the book a disservice because you can't really see the big picture just off the article.
The book is broken up into 10 chapters or reasons why you aren't married yet, things like "You're a Bitch", "You're Godless, "You're a Liar" etc... and each one has her own life experience, a breakdown of her point of view (i.e. what the harsh chapter name is about), and suggestions on how you can change. I think that part of the reason I loved this book is because I'm in a place in my life where I want to change (thanks to May Cause Miracles) but I feel as though this book could open the eyes of even the harshest critic.
I truly wan't to recommend this book to SO many of my single friends and tell them "READ THIS NOW!!!!!!" but again, this is one of those things you have to be open to. I plan to go back and read through specific chapters I know I had an issue with and I'm actually planning to buy it (I check it out at the library) which shows you how much I enjoyed it. I can't tell y'all enough how great this book was! So if you think you might be open to it, go buy it now!!!(less)

I loved the story and the series but I kind of didn't love the ending. I liked Tucker but the entire book I just felt like she was supposed to be with Christian and I felt as though the original ending and what happened to Tucker would have fit better with that but I guess this was a happy ending of sorts.

I'd say the last 50 pages of the book were a complete surprise and I definitely enjoyed reading the entire thing. I thought it was a very interesting take on angels and I can' wait to see what happens in the rest of the series. (less)

I didn't really have any idea how this would play out and I'll say the ending kind of surprised me. The book overall was interesting and a page turner, in my opinion. I don't really read a lot of this genre so I had nothing to compare it to but I found it to be a decent story. I did think certain parts were a bit far fetched but it is what it is.(less)

I read it based off a recommendation from someone on Twitter and I'm so glad I did. It was such a real story and Cat, the main character, was such an interesting character to follow and so real and honest. I loved the story and it's portrayal of the ignorance that a lot of people have about certain things. I definitely recommend this and must say I was surprised at the ending. (less)

Anyway, the gist of it was interesting and I could see where he was coming from with the love languages. I found out what mine were, if you buy into that sort of thing, and I guess I can apply it to future dating but IDK. There was so much hype around this book that I kind of expected more.
And also, I didn't enjoy all the religious sermons and undertones he snuck into the book. (less)

The book was funny, clever, well written, and had so many hilarious quotes that I was actually cracking up reading it. I assume a lot of that had to do with the help of her cowriter but you can definitely see Brandi's voice in this book and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. (less)

She was all done and ready to move on and then she shows up at his house and then he stands there and says nothing and lets her in? What about his girlfriend? Where has he been? Did he have memory loss from his concussion? Why did he leave in the first place? I literally have so many questions and it annoys me because I now HAVE to read the next book even though I think I kind of hated this story. Ugh!!!(less)
