"Do your best not to take a person's actions to personal because you never no the person's story. Basically everything is not what it seems. It could just be a cover or they envy you because you are in the position where they wish to be."
— Joy (5 out of 5 stars)
“Incorporating each character’s perspective, Jakes highlights the different seasons of women’s lives—from Michelle’s youthful reliance on beauty and sensuality through Miz Ida’s appreciation of an eternal hopefulness that defies aging.”
— Booklist“Cover Girls is a sensitive novel dealing with four different women, each at a different ‘season’ in her life…It’s impossible to be unmoved by preacher and storyteller T.D. Jakes’ amazingly emotional story. This deeply compassionate novel shows how each Cover Girl confronts the biggest challenge of her life.”
— RT Book Reviews (4 stars)" I like this book cover girl is good book.The woman in book is funny "
— tabatha , 4/11/2013" It was a read on the different stages women going through (using the seasons as a metaphor). Some of the characters were underdeveloped though so it left a lot to be desired. Some of the scenarios just weren't believable at all! "
— Blsd_BkWm, 12/24/2011" I can't believe T.D. Jakes wrote this with his scary looking self. Doesn't he look like Mr. Brown from the Madea plays? Anyway, he seems to be really in touch with the female mind...it's scary...or either he's lying. Only God knows. "
— Melodie, 1/28/2011" Everyone is different but we should all be able to relate "
— Shontay, 10/1/2009" I want to believe that the four characters in this book represented the best (and worst of us). I was joyful to see good triumph over evil. "
