Reviews are in for Sheree's New Book


The reviews are not good at all

Four reviewers and three stars out of five.

It's sooooo obvious who "Sasha from Ohio" is despite the name change.

I'm from the UK, there is no way I am paying £8.87($11.23)on kindle or £11.92($15.09) on paperback for something I can easily read on blogs.

It'll probably be in the marked down section real soon then lol I hadn't planned on buying Sheree's book. But sure I'll read it IF it's on the $1.99 table at my local bookstore!

I wouldn't read it if it were reduced in size and added to a box of "Cracker Jacks" as a prize!  

I might consider reading it if the covers are made of bronze gold and I can rip them off and buy a house with it... then throw out everything else!

Hard pass on that one. I cannot believe that we got a book from Sheree before her workout DVDs, fitness clothing line, regular clothing line, and her house.

Well at least she did stick with it and completed it, which would be a first for her. BTW, whatever happened to She-by-Sheree?

I woke up this way...

It went down the drain just like the rest of Sheree's ideas!  

fiero, not a fan of Sheree's huh?

reply

It's her own sense of worth, the dismal failures, and the delusion she tried to perpetrate on all of us with her pretentiousness and snobbish persona! She's finally come off as her true self; a nosy busybody who insists on stirring $#!t at every opportunity!   - The only time I was truly satisfied with Sheree's act was when she ran Nene out of that restaurant! Nene got off that tough girl pedestal and went crying to Cynthia!  

I didn't root for either one of them with that fight because they both came off as pathetic. I don't think that Nene was afraid of Sheree. I think that she just wanted to have the last word and didn't want to listen to what Sheree had to say anymore. I'm not a fan of hers(she was okay some of last season), but that one time when she told that guest relation man "who's going to check me boo?" I cheered her on. I so much didn't care for her in season 4. I will agree, with her, when she said that Cynthia was up Nene's behind, but the same can be said about her regarding Kim. And if Kim had any common sense she should have asked Sheree why didn't she stand up for her instead of coming at Kandi the way that she did.

C'mon, the book before the house one should be readily believable.
And what woman wants the Hulk Hogan body like Sheree has?!

I don't know why I didn't listen to you guys, and the "real" reviews. I bought that mess.. lol.. It's ridiculous. She's ridiculous and can't really write, ever again. It's juvenile and the pacing is pedestrian. The narrator sounds like a slightly older woman, but she has the sound effects down, and uses the right intonation for slang. But, I don't know which is funniest. The prose, or hearing a 58+ year old lady moan (representing a probably early 30's late 20's chick).

But we get a glimpse of how she feel's about herself "classy, fashionable, highly intelligent, probably better than everyone else". Yes, I'm less than 1/2 way through but I do think Paris is Nene (whom she see's as an embarrassing large, loud and crude hood stripper).

Anyhoo, any of you chat on Lipstick Ally? Their boards are particularly active. I don't have a screen name, never posted. I laugh because a lot of the women joke they don't want anyone, especially their kids to know they read/post on LSA, lol. But many of the conversations are more elevated than the fanboy hijacked threads on IMDB . And they do live "commentary".

Maybe I'll see some of you there.

Now I'm convinced more than ever the cast frequent these message boards.

At the time I posted this there were four GENUINE reviews that didn't really think much of this book and left some scathing reviews.

Since then there are now another two reviews with guess what? Five stars and both have withheld their names, well how convenient. I'm all for people promoting and helping each other, but dayum!

I'm going with the four honest reviews I saw earlier. Here are the five star reviews;

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read!!! Must have!

Great read! I'm loving this book! It's a read that's relatable and real. I love reading about the struggles of Sasha. I disagree with a previous reviewer in saying that we see everything on tv. Bravo doesn't show us what happens when the cameras stop rolling! Now that's real reality tv. The public is so quick to judge wives of ballers, always dubbing them a gold diggers. I've been guilty of this as well. We never stop to think of their struggles or aspirations. Sheree is just sharing her or Sasha's experience in Hotlanta!!! It's interesting for sure. I especially love trying to figure out the characters...if you know what I mean!

I think the bold sentence speaks volumes. Kim Z I see you!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent well written book

This book is worth every penny. Excellent well written book. Great job Sheree! This book is very good!! It is unfair to post wrong/bad reviews when the book is this great. I enjoyed reading every page.

Hmmmm.....family member perhaps. How convenient, two days after I posted the link.

Sheree, I was going to buy your book until I read the posting from someone above who outed you on having friends and family provide your book with fake reviews. I'm sorry but I have no respect for wannabe authors trying to manipulate my opinion through biased advertising and pretenses to being a real customer. I actually had plans to buy your book until I learned the above that you have been asking friends and family to give you positive reviews who probably never even read a page from your book. You should have just been classy about this and let the public form their own opinions about your book without tampering with the feedback. Even if it was largely negative, I would have had more respect for you and read your book because it would have spoken to your respectful acceptance. But by calling up your friends or whatever and probably paying them to give you a nice book review, you have just lost a customer. Good bye!

There are now more five star reviews.

The reviews are extreme and sooooooo obvious. They are either 5 star or 1 star and only one average review. No four or two stars.
