A Day Late and a Dollar Short (Abridged) Audiobook

" I loved! this book. It shows how a family can fall apart simply because of their unwillingness to communicate ... all it takes is a few words to bring them back together. "

" I started this book, put it down. Picked it up again and then put it down again. i need to just read it and be done. "

" i loved this book. it too real. "

" I enjoyed this book tremendously. It is written for black people but it encompasses issues of people of all walks of life. "

" I truly appreciate Ms. McMillan as a writer, she can truly bring the pages of a story to life. I look up to her as a mentor getting into writing my first book myself she is truly an inspiration to me. When I read this book it made me laugh, cry, it made me mad and then it made me think of my past and how somw ofthe things some of the characters went through i relived it too because I had been through some of those same experiences. So I have to say this is one of my most favorite books in my collection. "

" Ok... Hard to follow at times. "

" Good to listen to because of the dialects. Well defined characters, but I didn't enjoy them all, so I found myself getting tense when certain characters were speaking. Somewhat predictable, but enjoyable to listen to. "

" Not nearly as good as her earlier works. This just didn't have the same depth as Mama and Disappering Acts. This isn't a bad book but I was hoping for a return of her former great writing when I read it. I was disappointed. "
