The Best of Everything: A Novel Audiobook

" Too predictable and the main character was annoying. "

" This book was a pure example of not being ready! Young women who think they are ready for marriage and are not typically have the same troubles as the main character. A need to read for a 18-30 year old! "

" Very quick and easy read. Entertained from the beginning. Typical Roby style. "

" I normally like Kimberla Roby - I've read all of the Curtis Black books so far - but this one just barely gets two stars from me. By the end I was ready to pull my hair out because of the characters and their contradictions. I won't re-state the plot - it's as stated on the book jacket - but Roby does so much "preaching" that it just ruined it for me. She tackles shopping addictions, black folk who don't go to the doctor, affairs, high living drug dealers, folk who are scared to commit to marriage - and the characters all have problems/issues that made me not like them at all, but not in an "this bad guy's character is so well written that I really hate him" way; in an "I can't believe she wrote this" way. I struggled to finish this, and probably only did so because it was an audiobook and I couldn't skip ahead to the end. There will probably be a follow-up, as she didn't close it out completely. "

" good read..page turner!!! "

" I was expecting African-American chick lit, but this was a little deeper than that, more realistic. The phrase that keeps ringing in my ear is because of what he/she did, I "had no choice." Thankfully one character begins to make some choices instead of just reacting. Not an easy book. "

" Quick and wonderful read. a real page-turner "

" This selection wasn't marked as an inspirational book, but I recommend it to others as very inspirational. "

" this was a pretty sad and shallow read! "

" It was okay....was definitely expecting more and was left disappointed!! "

" I listened to this book and thought it had some good points but I wouldn't rate it as a must read. "

" I loved this book. Who knew Alicia would take after her father the famous Rev. Curtis Black "

" I cannot relate to Alicia at all. I had a hard time making it through this book because her choices and self-centered attitude just turned my stomach. "

" She is her father's daughter in more ways than one. "

" It's intense but I need to read it. At this time a dark door of mind came blasting open..... "

" Not a bad read....but not as exciting as the previous Curtis Black series...Felt we did not get as much depth or history on the main character, how she ended up so much like her father. "

" Alicia is truly Curtis Black's daughter and then some. "

" I see a new Curtis Black Jr. Like father like daughter! Great read loved it. "

" Soo shallow "

" Couldn't get past about page 15. So very very stupid. "

" I have been reading this series for years and i absolutely love the series! "

" Kimberla does it again. This is a excellent read,once I started reading I couldn't put it down. "

" LOVED THE BOOK!! LIKE FATHER LIKE DAUGHTER. IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE SERIES YOU SHOULD. I KNOW THERE WILL BE A FOLLOW-UP TO THIS STORY. "

" Like father, like daughter. This follows Curtis Black's oldest child as she gets married. She is so her father's child! "

" Too predictable and the main character was annoying. "

" Alicia is truly her fathers child. I found myself staying up late reading to see what Alicia might be up to next. This book was filled with twist and turns that keep you from wanting to put it down. I truly enjoyed this novel. "

" Quick and wonderful read. a real page-turner "

" This was a good book with lessons to teach us. Would love to see this as a movie. "

" One of the worst I've read in a long time. The main character has no redeeming qualities and gets even worse. "

" I see a new Curtis Black Jr. Like father like daughter! Great read loved it. "
