Ratchet Real Housewives

I feel the author is a fantastic storyteller. I am just not her audience. I found the long descriptions of material possessions to be obnoxious and a bit sad that success, power, and beauty is still being measured by what Chanel bag one has or what Bentley they are renting for the weekend. Also, I hate the projection that for a Black man to be financially successful, he first had to hustle and do illegal things to acquire wealth. I felt like I was reading a book from the perspective of the Real Housewives or Love and Hip Hop. And all of the man sharing made me feel like the title should have been “He’s my STI not Yours”. Again, great writer. Great narration. Not my taste in people, lifestyles, or ratchet mentality.

I think the reader was chewing gum while reading. If I wasn’t into the story, I would have returned the book because of that. Unprofessional and annoying.

Alexa is the epitome of all insecure women who allow toxic thinking to sabotage their happiness. She was annoying like Danielle from Love is Blind 2. She also makes you examine yourself to determine whether you've been victim to your own overthinking as well. Loved the storyline, characters and romance. But Alexa needs to get a grip.

Why is the Black woman "the help", has round hips, is a single mom who doesn't know where the daddy is and she speaks with broken English. Shame on you Lauren Clark! If one dimensional stereotypes are the only thing that come to mind d when creating characters of color, then just leave them out of your book.

This book was realistic and really good. True friendship is indeed the foundation for a authentic love. I appreciated the love between the two characters as well as the integrity all of the characters exhibited even when tested. I love that it showed how we are inherently good people. not ratchet. not immature. no stereotypes at play here and I appreciated it!

This was a breath of fresh air!. Thank you to the author for writing a book that didn't center around Black people being broke, from. the hood, having to hustle and coming from a hard life. Thank you for highlighting ambitious and drive men and women. Thank you for showing that healthy families exist. Thank you for showing grown ups how to be true friends. Thank you for demonstrating what real, respectful love looks like. Thank you for illustrating that breakups can be healthy rather than destructive. This book was everything we need in times like this.
