"Mary can you addicted quick!!!! I have read evryone one of her books. Mary thanks for all the great reads! " — Anna (5 out of 5 stars)
"Mary can you addicted quick!!!! I have read evryone one of her books. Mary thanks for all the great reads! "
“Fascinating…Monroe’s psychological study centers on a woman who tries to become someone else, with almost tragic results. The theme of identity theft is serious, and Trudy is a woman making a lot of bad choices. But somehow she is a sympathetic person who deserves to survive and come out ahead.”
“[A] page-turner about human frailties.”
“Narrated by Trudy in girlfriend-to-girlfriend style, Monroe’s latest deals with race, class, and gender issues, which makes it more than just a cautionary tale about identity theft…Recommended.”
" this was an outstanding book "
" Way to bring your message home Mary. I love the initial message and concept of this book. "
" Not exactly the person you want to model your life on, but difficult times can lead to questionable choices! An engaging story, regardless. "
" Mary can you addicted quick!!!! I have read evryone one of her books. Mary thanks for all the great reads! "
" Just goes to tell you, you never really know a person! Good read. "
" The book was sooo realistic!!! But, then again, the ending was pretty crappy. Good read, though! "
" This book is the story of a young lady who is hired at a travel agency and has access to her supervisor's company credit cards and uses them to her benefit. It shows how a person can really get caught up with money. It was okay. "
" this book is my fav and it's very interesting "
" Great book! But I felt that the ending missed the target. I was all riled up and then it just ended with no "spark". But engaging story nonetheless! "
" Good book. Trudy (Gertrude) Bell is a trip and so is her friend. Unfortunately, it's a close mimick to real life situations. "
" I really enjoyed this book because although it isn't a path i followed, i have come mighty close! "
" THis is a interesting book about stolen identity. The things that people are willing to do in order to have their lives together....But still Living to lives at once... "
" Not my favorite Mary Monroe book. I prefer the Annette Goode stories (God Don't Like Ugly etc) but still a good solid read. "
