Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Why I Love Men: The Joys of Dating (Paperback)
I have to admit, I opened your book and was thinking "okay another steve harvey book"...so I was not very enthused but started reading anyway. But WOW! It's very good! I mean all of the personal stories created the excitement and entertainment that I as a reader needed to feel to continue reading on...otherwise, I may as well be in an instructional class. The book was very entertaining, truthful and REAL. Great Job JJ! Honestly JJ, I had to close the book because I was about to miss an appointment, but I still keep it with me everywhere I go because it is such a fun read! So many entertaining stories and it is such a great book!!
