5.0 out of 5 stars
Monroe Delivers!!!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: In Sheep's Clothing (Hardcover)
Now, I don't know why these other people been fakin' on giving this outstanding novel 5 stars, like it deserves, but I won't!! Ms. Monroe has once again delivered a knock-out. I have read all her books and they are all wonderful!! "In Sheep's Clothing" is the story of Trudy Bell who lives a boring life working in her dad's liquor store. As the book opens she gets robbed and molested on her last day of work.Trudy soon starts a secretarial job at Bon Voyage travel agency, where she works with a bunch of interesting folks, including Ann Oliver,who she has a love/hate relationship with. They are the only 2 Black people employed there. Trudy and Ann also look a lot alike. There is also Pam, and Wendy who are bad influences on Trudy. They encourage her to drink (Trudy has to, to tolerate Ann) and use Ann's company credit card for her on purposes. It soon gets out of control. Trudy has to deal with her dad Otto, who has a Fred Sanford-like heart condition, her boring man of 10 years James, his mother Mavis who is attached to James' hip and Ann's hot to cold personality. Trudy also has her comical best friend Freddie and her man Lobo, who seem to help Trudy dig an even deeper hole for herself. Trudy eventually steals Ann's identity and starts living the "good" life(with Lobo's help) of fine dining, nice clothes and mini-vacations that she tells Otto and James are work-related retreats. They also don't know Trudy is gettin' her groove on with exotic men, on the trips and eventually in her secret home! Trudy learns that Ann is into some crazy stuff with a Jamacian named Giles. After causing Trudy much drama and treating her like a dog, Ann abruptly leaves Bon Voyage and the country. Trudy really sets it off then by getting an apartment in Ann's name along with all of the credit cards she already had! Trudy's life soon starts spinning out of control. Trudy will soon learn that being Ann Oliver isn't all it cracked up to be, and by the time she realizes that, it may be too late!
Ms. Monroe did her thing on this one, her writing style is truly unique and refreshing. There are a lot of funny parts that will have you cracking up! This book does not dissapoint!

This review is from: In Sheep's Clothing (Hardcover)
I enjoyed this book and was happy that I ignorned some of the negative ratings this book received. Ms. Monroe touched a topic that is happening so much at this day in age.
She also touched on valuable lessons that everyone should remember - jeaously does not pay and be careful what you wish for. She did an excellent job and I would highly recommend this book, especially to those individuals who are tempted to steal someone's identity. You never know what you are getting yourself into. Good job Mary.
