1.0 out of 5 stars what the......?, July 12, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Diary of a Groupie : A Novel (Hardcover)

I figured I would give mr tyree another chance, but I have no idea what he was trying to do in this book. It jumps from one idea to another. When the book starts to get interesting he jumps right into twist and turns. I think this book will have a sequel but I hope not.

DO NOT BUY, SAVE YOUR MONEY, BORROW SOMEONE'S BOOK WHO HAS ALREADY BROUGHT IT!!!!!!

This review is from: Diary of a Groupie : A Novel (Hardcover)

THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ IN MY LIFE. I KEPT PUTTING IT DOWN AND THEN PICKING IT BACK UP, HOPING THAT IT WOULD GET BETTER....IT NEVER DID. HE CAN NOT GET ANOTHER CENT FROM ME EVER AGAIN. I HAVE READ TEXTBOOKS THAT WERE MORE INTERESTNG THAN THAT BOOK. IF YOU LIKE BOOKS ABOUT DRAMA, SEX AND SCANDLE THEN DON'T READ THIS. LOL, NO SERIOUSLY I AM THINKING ABOUT TRYING TO GET MY MONEY BACK...BECAUSE THAT WAS A WASTE. IF I DIDN'T HAVE TO GIVE A STAR THEN I WOULDN'T HAVE.....

This book, how should I begin...I really don't know. It was okay, but kind of unrealistic.

I think Omar Tyree was trying to make Tabitha Knight who is the main character in the book the black Heidi Fliess.

Tabitha Knight kept a diary of all the men she has been with who were very sucessfull men in all walks of life. She never held a job she made her money by sleeping with these men, that is how she paid her bills. Everything came to a halt when someone got wind of her diaries and wanted them from her to protect their identity and his family.

The story itself wasn't all that. I don't know what happened to Mr. Tyree's writing skills, but they have been very limited lately. Try to get this book from the library like I did, spend your money on something else.
